“Jet quenching” predictions

• Multiple final-state non-Abelian (gluon)

• radiation off the produced hard parton

• induced by the traversed dense medium.

• Parton energy loss µmedium properties:

  • DEloss ~ gluon (gluon density)
  • DEloss ~ DL2 (medium length)

• Energy is carried away by gluonsstrahlung

• inside jet cone: dE/dx ~ s k2T

• Correction for expanding (1-D) plasma :

  • E1-D =(20/RA) · Estatic ~ 15·Estatic (0=0.2 fm/c, RA=6 fm)
