Abstract
To study properties of quark-gluon plasma(QGP) is one of the main tasks of modern High Energy Physics. One of the signatures of QGP formation is jet quenching, which was observed as a suppression of particle yields (compared to the yield of the same particles in proton-proton collisions) at high transverse momentum region in central collisions of ultra-relativistic heavy nuclei. Jet quenching is the effect of the final state of heavy nuclei collision which is usually explained through parton energy loss in hot and dense medium. Experimentally the jet quenching is studied with nuclear modification factor. This paper presents invariant transverse momentum spectra and nuclear modification factors for π0 mesons in different classes of centrality in U+U collisions at √SNN=192GeV. Spectra and factors are measured in a wide pT range up to 18 GeV/c for different classes of centrality. In central U+U collisions suppression of neutral π-mesons is the same as the suppression of neutral π-mesons in Au+Au collisions at the similar collision energy and similar numbers of participants.
