Short path length pQCD corrections to energy loss in the quark gluon plasma

Recent surprising discoveries of collective behaviour of low-pT particles in pA collisions at LHC hint at the creation of a hot, uid-like QGP medium. The seemingly conflicting measurements of non-zero particle correlations and RpA that appears to be consistent with unity demand a more careful analys...
