Description

High energy proton lead collisions at the LHC allow us to study the effects of the nucleus on hard/soft interactions. These give us a handle on the initial state effects by taking advantage of asymmetry in the collision system. I will summarize the results on the nuclear modification factors for inclusive and heavy flavor tagged jets based on Run1 data collected in 2013 for pPb collisions at \sqrt{s_{pA}}= 5.02 TeV and an outlook to the future.
