Constraining the Jet-Energy Loss using a Parton Cascade — •Barbara Betz — Institut für Theoretische Physik, Johann Wolfgang Goethe-Universität, Frankfurt am Main

We have developed a generic jet-energy loss model that has been shown to describe the experimentally measured nuclear modification factor and the high-pT elliptic flow at RHIC and LHC energies when being coupled to state-of-the-art hydrodynamic precriptions. Now we extend this study by using the parton cascade BAMPS to provide the bulk background. We discuss both pQCD-based and AdS/CFT-inspired jet-energy loss prescriptions, the impact of a temperature-dependent jet-medium coupling, transverse flow, viscosity, as well as the difference between reconstructed and pion jets.
