Abstract
We extend the calculation of radiative corrections to momentum broadening in a QCD medium to include processes where single scattering dominates over multiple soft scatterings. Our analysis focusses on processes that are enhanced by a potentially large double logarithmic contribution. We demonstrate that such double logarithmic contributions emerge in calculations of momentum broadening in dilute systems where only single scattering occurs. We show how the different regimes, multiple versus single scattering, constrain different parts of the phase space.
