We analyze the suppression of particle production at large transverse momenta in ($0-5%$ most) central collisions of gold nuclei at $\sqrt{s_\textrm{NN}}=$ 200 GeV and lead nuclei at $\sqrt{s_{\textrm{NN}}}=$ 2.76 TeV. Full next-to-leading…

We investigate the measurement of the distribution of away-side jet $p_T$ as a way to probe the energy loss mechanism in heavy ion collisions, and constrain the properties of the medium created in heavy ion collisions. We define an…
It is shown that to leading order the collisional energy loss of an energetic parton in the hot quark gluon plasma reads $dE/dx \sim \alpha(m_D^2)T^2$, where the scale of the coupling is determined by the (parametrically soft) Debye…
We calculate the hadron spectra in high-energy pp, pA and AA collisions within a pQCD parton model. Analyses of experimental data show that the modification of the spectra in pA and AA as compared to that in $pp$ collisions is consistent…
Color singlet two gluon exchange provides a perturbative model for the pomeron. This mechanism is thought to explain the production of rapidity gaps in hard dijet events at the Tevatron. It is shown that in $qQ$ scattering via two gluon…

Understanding the pattern of gluon radiation in $t \bar t$ production processes is important for making an accurate determination of the top mass from the measurement of its decay products. In a recent paper we showed that the exact matrix…
We discuss the energy loss of energetic parton jets in quark-gluon plasma above the deconfinement temperature $T_c$ by the interaction with scalar and pseudoscalar glueballs. It is shown that the loss by this mechanism is quite important…
We study the energy loss of a heavy quark propagating through the matter produced in the collision of two sheets of energy [1]. Even though this matter is initially far-from-equilibrium we find that, when written in terms of the energy…
Recent results in the theory of multiphoton spectra for coherent radiation sources are overviewed, with the emphasis on channeling radiation. For the latter case, the importance of the order of resummation and averaging is illustrated.…
Medium induced parton energy loss is not conclusively established neither in very peripheral heavy-ion collisions nor in proton-ion collisions. However, the standard interpretation of azimuthal momentum anisotropies in theses systems…
