Abstract
We propose a new implementation of medium effects in jet structures in which a modification of the splitting function is included at every step in the typical final state parton shower. Although the main application of this new formalism will be at the LHC, it is interesting that, in the presence of a trigger bias to small number of splittings, non-trivial angular dependences could appear with shapes similar to those measured experimentally at RHIC in high-pT particle correlations.
