The theory and phenomenology of jets in nuclear collisions

Ivan Vitev, Ben-Wei Zhang, Simon Wicks

We review selected results from a recent in-depth study of jet shapes and jet cross sections in ultra-relativistic reactions with heavy nuclei at the LHC arXiv:0810.2807 [hep-ph].…

A theory of jet shapes and cross sections: from hadrons to nuclei

Ivan Vitev, Simon Wicks, Ben-Wei Zhang

For jets, with great power comes great opportunity. The unprecedented center of mass energies available at the LHC open new windows on the QGP: we demonstrate that jet shape and je…

Up to and beyond ninth order in opacity: Radiative energy loss with GLV

Simon Wicks

A new examination of the GLV all-orders opacity result for radiative energy loss is presented. The opacity expansion is shown to be a Dyson expansion of a Schrodinger-like (or diff…

Heavy-Quark Kinetics in the QGP at LHC

H. van Hees, V. Greco, R. Rapp

We present predictions for the nuclear modification factor and elliptic flow of D and B mesons, as well as of their decay electrons, in semicentral Pb-Pb collisions at the LHC. Hea…

Thermal Dileptons at LHC

H. van Hees, R. Rapp

We predict dilepton invariant-mass spectra for central 5.5 ATeV Pb-Pb collisions at LHC. Hadronic emission in the low-mass region is calculated using in-medium spectral functions o…

Heavy quark jet quenching with collisional plus radiative energy loss and path length fluctuations

Simon Wicks

With the QGP opacity computed perturbatively and with the global entropy constraints imposed by the observed , radiative energy loss alone cannot account for…
