Strange baryon vs meson ratio in near-side and away-side jets in p$+$p collisions at ALICE using azimuthal correlations

ORAL

Abstract

Two-particle azimuthal correlations are an ideal probe to study high pT parton fragmentation without full jet reconstruction [1-2]. Enhancements of the azimuthal correlations are seen at $\Delta \varphi =$ 0 and $\Delta \varphi = \pi $, indicating the near-side and away-side jets, respectively [3]. We will present the ongoing work on correlations between charged leading particles and the associated strange baryons and mesons in p$+$p at $\surd $sNN $=$ 7 TeV. The aim of this work is to study the strange baryon vs meson ratio in near- and away-side jets, as well as underlying events, using azimuthal correlations. This study is done in different pT intervals in the 1-6 GeV/c range for the associated particles. \\[4pt] [1]. J. Adams et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 91, 072304 (2003)\\[0pt] [2]. F.Q.
