520 # $a We provide here the first study of jets in p+p collisions at RHIC using topological jet reconstruction of charged particles. By analyzing angular correlations of large transverse momentum di-hadron pairs, we also provide the first ever direct observation of jets in heavy ion collisions. Jet fragmentation to charged hadrons is then studied in Au+Au collisions as a function of impact parameter. The small-angle correlations observed in p+p collisions and at all centralities of Au+Au collisions are characteristic of hard-scattering processes already observed in elementary collisions. A strong back-to-back correlation exists for p+p and peripheral Au+Au collisions. In contrast, the back-to-back correlations are reduced considerably in the most central Au+Au collisions, indicating substantial interaction as the hard-scattered partons or their fragmentation products traverse the medium. These data are consistent with perturbative calculations incorporating partonic energy loss in dense QCD matter. To describe the data, these calculations require an initial energy density of &sim;20 GeV/fm3, more than 100 times the density of cold nuclear matter. This is suggestive of the formation of a novel, deconfined state of quark-gluon matter.
