abstract
We study the connection between radiative energy loss and radiative p_T-broadening of a high-energy quark or gluon passing through QCD matter. The generalized Baier-Dokshitzer-Mueller-Peigne-Schiff-Zakharov (BDMPS-Z) formalism is used to calculate energy loss due to multiple gluon emission. With L the length of the matter and l_0 the size of constituents of the matter we find a double logarithmic correction proportional to ln^2(L/l_0) to parton energy loss due to two-gluon emission. We also show that the radiative energy loss per unit length -dE/dz = alpha_s N_c < p_T^2 >/12 by carrying out a resummation of the double logarithmic terms. Here, the transverse momentum broadening <p_T^2> is obtained by resumming terms proportional to alpha_s ln^2(L/l_0) in Ref. [11]. Our result agrees with that by the renormalization of qhat proposed in Refs. [13,14].

Revisiting extremely high energy QED bremsstrahlung in matter: large modifications to the LPM effect
Pair production overlapping soft bremsstrahlung enhances the in-medium radiation rate above the standard LPM value, opposite to the 1964 prediction of Galitsky and Gurevich.
