Fundamental Question of Energy Loss Is energy loss dominated by perturbative effects? Is it dominated
by radiative energy loss?
What is dE/dx (L,E)
What is the medium’s response?

Fit the fake jet data from HIJING without jets to remove trivial ET dependence (by definition centered at 0 with width of 1)
Real jets will have a much smaller SumJt and a cut to reject fake jets is made.

Physics Conclusion Only after we establish that jets we measure
lose energy in some perturbative way can we go to measure D(z), jT distributions, etc. to understand the details of the perturbative energy loss.
Until then we must, at both RHIC and the LHC, to find measurements which are sensitive to perturbative and non-perturbative energy loss.

A Further Outlook Whole set of results not shown which will be
necessary experimental tools for understanding jet energy loss: kT algorithm, -jets, heavy flavor tagging
Background subtraction will be complicated by the medium response to jets
Fake jet rejection will be complicated by the energy loss mechanism
What other new physics is waiting to be discovered?

background contribution (and noise) is different in each layer

Example kT Event Applying the kT algorithm directly on the HI
event clusters all towers into a jet
Pink circles indicate pythia di-jets
All other jets are composed primarily of background

Example kT Event: Discrimination Define a (several) discriminating variable(s)
to distinguish between real and fake jets
• Example is max/avg tower ET jet-by-jet.• Pythia dijets are clearly visible.• Use fake jets to subtract background

Cone and kT Performance Comparison
Performance differences due to differences Intrinsic to the jet algorithms In handling the background In rejection fake jets
Multiple methods allow control of systematics
