Abstract
Many features of pPb collisions at the LHC resemble those of full-fledged PbPb collisions. This is suggestive of the formation of a similar deconfined quark–gluon plasma, though on a relatively smaller scale. We show that the resulting characteristic scales relevant for the quenching of high-p⊥p⊥ probes, and jets in particular, are nevertheless small for the relevant p⊥p⊥ range. This establishes these probes as clean observables of modifications on nuclear PDF's.
