We calculate how the energy and the opening angle of jets in ${\cal N}=4$ SYM theory evolve as they propagate through the strongly coupled plasma of that theory. We define the rate of energy loss $dE_{\rm jet}/dx$ and the jet opening angle…

We compute the energy density radiated by a quark undergoing circular motion in strongly coupled $\mathcal N = 4$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills plasma. If it were in vacuum, this quark would radiate a beam of strongly coupled radiation whose…

The energy loss effect in nuclear matter is another nuclear effect apart from the nuclear effects on the parton distribution as in deep inelastic scattering process. The quark energy loss can be measured best by the nuclear dependence of…
