Constraints induced by finite plasma formation time on some physical observables at RHIC
Abstract
Description
We discuss consequences of finite plasma formation time at RHIC. Nuclear modification factor, azimuthal assymetry, di-jet correlations can quantitatively be described by particle production in the early stage of the nuclear collision. A possible impact on interpretation of the non-photonic electrons and J/psi data is also considered.
