Nuclear modification of charged hadron production at LHC    [PDF]

Somnath De, Dinesh K. Srivastava
We analyze the recent results for suppressed production of charged hadrons for Pb+Pb collisions at the centre of mass energy of 2.76 TeV/nucleon. We closely follow the treatment used recently by us where partons lose energy due to radiation of gluons following multiple scatterings while traversing the quark gluon plasma, before fragmenting into hadrons at 200 GeV/nucleon. We obtain an empirical value for the momentum transport coefficient $(\hat{q})$ and provide predictions for azimuthal anisotropy of hadron momenta for non-central collisions.
