High-pT π0-Triggered Two-Particle Azimuthal Correlations in &[root]sNN = 200 GeV d+Au Collisions at PHENIX
ORAL
Abstract
Two-particle correlations azimuthal correlations using pairs of high-pT particles are sensitive to similar physics as fully reconstructed jets but probe a lower Q2 of the partonic interaction. Therefore, such correlations are important measurements to elucidate the physics behind multiple scatterings, energy loss, and saturation effects in d(p)+Au collisions. In particular the pseudorapidity- and pT- dependence of the away-side width of two-particle correlations is directly sensitive to the value of the color glass condensate saturation scale. In this contribution, we discuss the current status of two-particle correlations with identified π0 triggers over different pseudorapidity ranges from pairs at midrapidity to pairs at forward rapidity η~3 in 200 GeV d+Au collisions at PHENIX.
