Search for medium response to jet quenching via hadron chemistry around the quenched jets

Abstract

We present a unique signal of medium response to jet quenching: the enhancement of baryon-to-meson ratios for associated particles at intermediate transverse momentum around the triggered quenched jets. Since the lost energy from the jets can diffuse to large angles, we expect that such baryon-to-meson enhancement is stronger for larger distance with respect to the jet axis. Our prediction can be tested by future experiments.
