Abstract: Resonance production from jet fragmentation
Christina Markert (STAR Collaboration)
Short lived resonances are sensitive to the medium properties in a
heavy-ion collision. Heavy hadrons have a larger probability to be
produced within the quark gluon plasma phase due to their short
formation times. Therefore heavy mass resonances are more likely to
be affected by the chirally symmetric medium, and the identification
of the early produced resonances from jet fragmentation might be a
viable option to study chirality. The high momentum resonances on
the away-side of a di-jet are likely modified by the partonic or
early hadronic medium. In my talk I will discuss first results of
triggered hadron-resonance correlations in heavy ion collisions.
