We present a new formulation of jet quenching in perturbative QCD beyond the eikonal approximation. Multiple scattering in the medium is modelled through infra-red-continued (2 -> 2) scattering matrix elements in QCD and the parton shower…

We study the effects of jet quenching on the hydrodynamical evolution of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) fluid created in a heavy-ion collision. In jet quenching, a hard QCD parton, before fragmenting into a jet of hadrons, deposits a fraction…

We point out that high-mass thresholds in the evolution of the strong-interaction coupling parameter $\alpha_s$, due to gluinos, squarks and possible new heavy quarks, could introduce appreciable corrections to the transverse momentum…

The modification of the hard core of jets in a dense QCD medium is studied. In particular, we consider partons which possess a virtuality somewhat larger than the multiple scattering scale of the medium ($\hat{q} \tau$, where $\hat{q}$ is…

Jet quenching has successfully served as a hard probe to study the properties of Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP). As a multi-particle system, jets take time to develop from a highly virtual parton to a group of partons close to mass shells. In…
