High-p_T and Jets. A Summary of Results from Quark Matter 2012

Understand

A broad range of new experimental data and theoretical results on the properties of hadronic matter under extreme conditions have been reported at Quark Matter 2012 conference.

• At this conference the scientific community was presented with a variety of measurements from the 2011 lead-lead LHC run using hard probe observables.
• Many measurements, such as boson-jet correlations, production rates of the b-jets, high precision jet fragmentation and others were shown for the first time.
• The new data from the LHC was matched by new techniques and analyses coming from RHIC experiments.
