Partonic jet–quenching and high–p_T phenomena in transport simulations including inelastic interactions — •Oliver Fochler, Zhe Xu, and Carsten Greiner — Institut für Theoretische Physik, J. W. Goethe-Universität, Frankfurt am Main

We investigate partonic energy loss and jet–quenching within the framework of the Monte Carlo transport model BAMPS. The model consistently includes inelastic gg ↔ ggg processes by means of a stochastic approach, leading to fast thermalization of the matter in simulated heavy–ion collisions. We present our latest results on the nuclear modification factor R_AA in fully dynamic simulations of central nucleus–nucleus collisions and on partonic energy loss in static media. We briefly touch on collective flow, v₂, and on the ratio of viscosity to entropy density, η/s, which can be investigated within the same framework.
