We estimate the energy loss distribution and investigate the quenching of hadron spectra in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions due to the collisional energy loss of energetic partons from hard parton collisions in the initial stage.
One of the non-Abelian features of parton energy loss is the ratio $\Delta E_g/\Delta E_q=9/4$ between gluon and quark jets. Since jet production rate is dominated by quark jets at high $x_T=2p_T/\sqrt{s}$ and by gluon jets at low $x_T$,…
