Transverse momentum spectra for charged hadrons and for neutral pions in the range 1 GeV/c $< p_T <$ 5 GeV/c have been measured by the PHENIX experiment at RHIC in Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{_{NN}}}=130$ GeV. At high $p_T$ the spectra from peripheral nuclear collisions are consistent with the naive expectation of scaling the spectra from p+p collisions by the average number of binary nucleon- nucleon collisions. The spectra from central collisions are significantly suppressed when compared to the binary- scaled p+p expectation, and also when compared to similarly binary-scaled peripheral collisions, indicating a novel nuclear effect in central nuclear collisions at RHIC energies.

  1. Light-front Hamiltonian jet evolution in the Glasma

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    A light-front Hamiltonian method evolves a quark through Glasma fields to obtain transverse momentum broadening and jet quenching consistent with classical scaling in saturation momentum.

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    The probability distribution for collisional energy loss of a fast parton in hot QCD matter is derived from a resummed kinetic equation using hard-thermal-loop scatterings.

    hep-ph 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    In large-Nc and harmonic oscillator limits, medium-induced splittings are computed analytically double-differential in z and θ, with an improved semi-hard approximation validated for high-energy partons.
