Abstract: (Elsevier)
We present here an extraction of the jet transport coefficient, q̂ , using RHIC and LHC single-inclusive high- p T data for different centralities. We fit a K -factor that determines the deviation of this coefficient from an ideal estimate, K≡q̂/(2ϵ3/4) , where ϵ is given by hydrodynamic simulations. As obtained already in previous studies, this K -factor is found to be larger at RHIC than at the LHC. However it is, unexpectedly, basically no-dependent on the centrality of the collision. Taken at face value this result, the K -factor would not depend on local properties of the QGP as temperature, but on global collision variables such as the center of mass energy.Note:
