Overcoming Fragility

Abstract

We examine the sensitivity and surface bias of convolved DGLV radiative and elastic loss in a realistic geometry including Bjorken expansion. We find that this more faithful treatment of the medium density is not a priori reproducible via fixed length approximations, and neither the fragility nor the surface emission of BDMPS-based models is seen.
