contents Jets and Parton Energy Loss at RHIC: Experimental Status John Lajoie Física, Astronomía y Matemáticas RHIC Jets Heavy Energy loss ion collisions Experimental evidence from RHIC indicates that matter having an energy density far in excess of the value requiredfor the creation of a deconfined phase is produced in ultrarelativistic Au+Au collisions at psNN=200 GeV.This matter thermalizes rapidly, is strongly interacting, and displays hydrodynamic properties akin to a fluidwith very low viscosity. Studies of the interaction of hard scattered partons with this matter provide an importantprobe of its properties. In fact, studies of the suppression of high-pT hadrons have been one of the keyarguments used by the RHIC experiments that the matter created is something fundamentally new and exciting.I review the current experimental picture that has emerged from the data collected at RHIC, with an emphasison the effort to extract quantitative measurements from the suppression of high-pT hadrons. 2007 artículo científico 0103-9733 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=46437538 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=464 Brazilian Journal of Physics application/pdf Sociedade Brasileira de Física Brazilian Journal of Physics (Brasil) Num.2C Vol.37
