Full jet reconstruction in heavy-ion collisions is a promising tool for quantitative study of properties of the dense medium produced at RHIC. Measurements of d+Au collisions are important to disentangle initial state nuclear effects from medium-induced kT broadening and jet quenching. We report measurements of mid-rapidity (vertical bar eta(jet)vertical bar < 0.4 vertical bar) di-jet correlations in d+Au using high-statistics run 8 RHIC data at root s(NN) = 200 GeV.
