Description
Employing publicly available Monte Carlo models of jet modification in a partonic medium, we study jet-hadron correlations in heavy ion collisions at RHIC and LHC energies. In particular, we discuss the medium-induced broadening of the away-side peak. The surface bias, i.e. a trigger-dependent modification of the spatial distribution of hard scattering vertices, will be addressed as well.
