Overview of hard hadron production results in ALICE
Abstract
The ALICE experiment is designed to study the properties the hot and dense medium, the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP), produced in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions at the LHC. Measuring production of hadrons with large Q2 transfer in these collisions provides the possibility to explore one of the most spectacular effects — the in-medium parton energy loss. By varying the observables among light and heavy flavored hadrons and fully reconstructed jets and by changing the colliding systems from pp to p-Pb and Pb-Pb, one can explore the transport properties of hot matter in great details. Here an overview of recent ALICE results on high-pT hadron and jet production in pp, p-A and A-A collisions at LHC energies is presented.
