Resumo: Experimental observation of jet quenching in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions is one of the most remarkable discoveries at RHIC. High-pT hadron suppression, disappearance of back-to-back jets, and strong away-side modification at intermediate to low pT have provided us many insights into the matter created at RHIC. Particularly, angular correlations have become a powerful tool to study the QCD matter through its interactions with jets. Di-hadron correlations reveal significant broadening and softening of associated hadrons on the away side of a triggered high-pT particle. Many mechanisms have been proposed to accommodate the data, including the intriguing Mach cone shock waves in a thermalized hydrodynamic matter, which can be discriminated by 3-particle correlations. Here a brief overview of these remarkable experimental measurements on jet quenching is presented and implications of these measurements are discussed.
