The parton-to-hadron fragmentation functions (FFs) obtained from the YaJEM and PYTHIA6 Monte Carlo event generators, are studied for jets produced in a strongly-interacting medium and in the QCD "vacuum" respectively. The medium…

We present a new study of jet interactions in the quark-gluon plasma created in high-energy heavy-ion collisions, using a multistage event generator within the JETSCAPE framework. We focus on medium-induced modifications in the rate of…

An event generator is constructed on the basis of a model of multiple scattering of partons so that the trajectory of a parton traversing a dense and expanding medium can be tracked. The parameters in the code are adjusted to fit the…

The mass of heavy quarks, such as charm and bottom, plays an important role in the formation of parton showers. This effect is apparently not well understood when parton showers evolve in a strongly interacting quark-gluon plasma. We…
