Suppression persists all the way till 20 GeV/c
• Suppression is strong (RAA =0.2!) and flat up to 20 GeV/c
• Matter is extremely opaque
• The data should provide a lower bound on the initial gluon density

The data provides a strong constraint on the energy loss models.
The data suggest large c-quark-medium cross section; evidence for strongly coupled QGP?

The matter is so strongly The matter is so strongly coupled that even heavy coupled that even heavy
quarks flowquarks flow• Charm flows, but not as
strong as light mesons.
• Drop of the flow strength at high pT. Is this due to
b-quark contribution?• The data favors the
model that charm quark itself flows at low pT.
• Charm flow supports high parton density and strong coupling in the matter. It is not a weakly coupled gas.

My summary of QM2005My summary of QM2005• The matter produced at RHIC is VERY black
• 20 GeV hadrons or 30 GeV jets are NOT “penetrating probes”!• Extensive, detailed studies are needed to disentangle RHIC physics:
• One-jet vs. two-jet events
• RAA vs.
• Multiparticle correlations to access Mach or Cerenkov cones
• Really high pT jets at the LHC should clarify RHIC physics
• RAA of single particles along with reconstructed jets, dijets, +jet events
• The ATLAS detector is DESIGNED to study jets
• Heavy quarks are flowing• Study them carefully at RHIC with PHENIX & STAR upgrades
• higher pT, better background rejection, charm/beauty separation
• Study them at the LHC where they are copiously produced
• Multiplicity, radial & elliptic flow also very interesting...

ATLAS is the best jet ATLAS is the best jet detector EVER!detector EVER!
• Calorimeter designed for jets (#1 in the world)• Truly hermetic over -4.9 < < +4.9 due to
integrated design of barrel & endcap & forward cal. • EMCAL is much more finely segmented in R,
• Caveat: CMS E resolution is better at low occupancy
• Hadron CAL is deeper & more finely segmented• Better Jet E/E (ideal case: 50%/E (GeV)
• FCAL is segmented in R, • Especially important for forward physics & pA

To evaluate b-tagging performance:- ppWHlbb events overlayed
on HIJING background have been used.- A displaced vertex in the Inner Detector
has been searched for.
