1302.2579 (Y. Mehtar-Tani et al.)

Jet physics in heavy-ion collisions    [PDF]

Y. Mehtar-Tani, J. G. Milhano, K. Tywoniuk
Jets are expected to play a prominent role in the ongoing efforts to characterize the hot and dense QCD medium created in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions. The success of this program depends crucially on the existence of a full theoretical account of the dynamical effects of the medium on the jets that develop within it. By focussing on the discussion of the essential ingredients underlying such a theoretical formulation, we aim to set the appropriate context in which current and future developments can be understood.
