System-size dependence of charged-particle suppression in ultrarelativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions
A. Belyaev, Arzunik Gevorgyan, A. Hayrapetyan, A. Tumasyan et autres
High-energy partons lose energy while propagating through the hot, strongly interacting medium produced in ultrarelativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions, leading to a suppression of particle production at high transverse momentum ( p T ). The dependence of this energy loss on the size of …
