◮ ’deep inelastic scattering’ of jet on medium ◮ interplay between weakly and strongly coupled regimes ◮ emergence of collectivity from microscopic theory of
individual quanta

Beyond analytical calculations
Kinematics beyond eikonal limit
◮ phase space restrictions due to E/p-conservation ◮ no clear distinction between elastic & inelastic
scattering
◮ dynamical scattering centres
→ collisional energy loss → radiation off scattering centres
◮ no clear separation of vacuum and medium radiation
Futher limitations of analytical models
◮ single gluon radiation
probabilistic iteration thereof
◮ not suitable for exclusive observables & jets ◮ no control over recoils

State of the art MC’s in p+p
- (multi-purpose event generators: Herwig, Pythia, Sherpa)
matrix elements: fixed order perturbation theory final state parton shower: resummation of collinear/soft logarithms initial state parton shower: like final state parton hadronisation: non-perturbative QCD: modelling
Jet Quenching in the light of perturbative QCD Korinna Zapp Experimental findings Analytical approach MC approach Conclusions
Situation in A+A
- matrix elements: unmodified due to high scale
final state parton shower: modified by medium interactions
- nly calculations for special cases
e.g. single gluon radiation spectrum in eikonal limit
initial state parton shower: found to be unmodified at RHIC
except for pdf’s
hadronisation: probably modified, no theoretical guidance

Probabilistic formulation of the LPM-effect
◮ naive MC purely incoherent ◮ consider gluon radiation with two momentum transfers
Wiedemann, Nucl. Phys. B 588(2000),303
◮ analytical calculation interpolates between
incoherent production τ1 ≪ L
k q1 q2 L GB
coherent production τ1 ≫ L
k q2 q1 L GB
◮ τ1 ≡
2ω (k + q1)2 inverse transverse gluon energy
◮ can be interpreted as gluon formation time
→ momentum transfers during formation time act coherently
Jet Quenching in the light of perturbative QCD Korinna Zapp Experimental findings Analytical approach MC approach Conclusions
Coherent emission
Kinematics
◮ coherent scattering centres act as one
- ne momentum transfer:
ωd3I (1) dωdk ∝
- dq |A(q)|2R(k, q)
two momentum transfers: ωd3I (2) dωdk ∝
- dq1 dq2 |A(q1)|2|A(q2)|2R(k, q1 + q2)
◮ consistent determiation of scattering centres and
formation time
Emission probability
◮ suppression compared to incoherent emission by factor

Conclusions
◮ jet quenching is there, it is big and it is interesting ◮ analytical approaches: may give theoretical insight, but
not suitable for describing data
◮ JEWEL: MC model for jet quenching based on
perturbative QCD in general kinematics
◮ consistent with all analytically known limiting cases ◮ first confrontation with data looks very promising ◮ next: go for exclusive observables & jets
