Correlations with Photons in Heavy-Ion Collisions

Abstract

We present a study of two-particle correlation functions involving photons and neutral pions in proton-proton and lead-lead collisions at the LHC energy. The aim is to use these correlation functions to quantify the effects of the medium on the jet decay properties.
