title: High p(T) azimuthal asymmetry in noncentral A + A at RHIC.
abstract: The high p(T)>3 GeV azimuthal asymmetry, v(2)(p(T)), in noncentral nuclear collisions at RHIC is shown to be a sensitive measure of the initial parton density distribution of the produced quark-gluon plasma. A generalization of the Gyulassy-Lévai-Vitev non-Abelian energy loss formalism including Bjorken (1+1)D expansion as well as important kinematic constraints is used.
