Partonic energy loss of high-pT jets — •Oliver Fochler, Zhe Xu, and Carsten Greiner — Institut für Theoretische Physik, J. W. Goethe-Universität, Max-von-Laue-Str. 1, 60438 Frankfurt am Main
We investigate the energy loss of jets in a partonic medium. For this a recent 3+1 dimensional Monte Carlo parton cascade including inelastic multiplication processes gg ↔ ggg is used. The stopping of high energy jets is studied in a static medium as well as in nucleus-nucleus collisions at RHIC-energy. The calculated suppression of high-pT partons in a central Au-Au collision will be compared with experimental data.
