Abstract
Two-particle correlations using high-$p_{T}$ particles allow jet-like measurements at low $Q^2$ where jet reconstruction is challenging. Therefore, such correlations provide critical input to our understanding of how partons interact in a colored medium. PHENIX has measured $\pi^0$-hadron correlations in multiple collisions systems. The away-side widths in p+Au collisions are broader than those in p+p collisions. In Au+Au collisions both the shape and the yield of the away-side distributions are modified compared to those in p+Au and p+p collisions. The implications of these results to our understanding of energy loss in cold and hot nuclear matter are discussed.

Metadata are provided both in "article" format (very similar to INSPIRE) as this helps creating
very compact bibliographies which can be beneficial to authors and
readers, and in "proceeding" format
which is more detailed and complete.
