Summary
Jet in heavy-ion collisions is considered as a self-generated tomographic probe to study the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) created at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider, in BNL. Jet is quenched in the QGP relative to that in a vacuum, and this produces very striking evidence of the QGP. Recently, different new jet measurements have been performed both in the RHIC experiments. This includes semi-inclusive jet measurement on direct-photon and hadron trigger recoil jet at top RHIC energy in Au+Au collisions, the di-jet imbalance between hardcore jets, and jet shape analysis. A perspective for the forward jet measurement in a heavy-ion context for the STAR forward upgrade will also be discussed.
