Observation of Medium-Induced Yield Enhancement and Acoplanarity Broadening of Low- p T Jets from Measurements in pp and Central Pb-Pb Collisions at sNN =5.02 TeV
The ALICE Collaboration reports the measurement of semi-inclusive distributions of charged-particle jets recoiling from a high transverse momentum (high pT) hadron trigger in proton-proton and central Pb-Pb collisions at sNN=5.02 TeV. A data-driven statistical method is used to mitigate the large uncorrelated background in central Pb-Pb collisions. Recoil jet distributions are reported for jet res
