abstract
Jet quenching has been used successfully as a hard probe to study properties of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) in high-energy heavy-collisions at both the Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider (RHIC) and the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). We will review recent progresses in theoretical and phenomenological studies of jet quenching with jet transport models. Special emphasis is given to effects of jet-induced medium response on a wide variety of experimental measurements and their implication on extracting transport properties of the QGP in heavy-ion collisions.

A light-front Hamiltonian method evolves a quark through Glasma fields to obtain transverse momentum broadening and jet quenching consistent with classical scaling in saturation momentum.
The probability distribution for collisional energy loss of a fast parton in hot QCD matter is derived from a resummed kinetic equation using hard-thermal-loop scatterings.
In large-Nc and harmonic oscillator limits, medium-induced splittings are computed analytically double-differential in z and θ, with an improved semi-hard approximation validated for high-energy partons.
The in-medium antenna gluon spectrum is obtained by numerical solution of Dyson-type equations that fully resum multiple scatterings for Yukawa and HTL rates, without harmonic-oscillator or opacity truncations.
Track functions exhibit model-dependent modifications to higher moments in heavy-ion jets, with RG flows qualitatively preserved, enabling discrimination between jet quenching pictures.
ATLAS observes increasing dijet imbalance with centrality in O+O and Ne+Ne collisions at 5.36 TeV, consistent with medium-induced energy loss in small systems.
Derives Lindblad evolution for color dipole in QCD plasma and demonstrates quasi-factorization of Wigner distribution violated by color decoherence factor controlled by theta_qqbar/theta_c ratio.
A conditional flow-matching model trained on CoLBT-hydro reproduces marginal γ-jet medium-response hadron spectra in 0–10% Pb+Pb at 5.02 TeV with ~10⁶× speedup while preserving front and diffusion-wake statistics.
The jet broadening tensor qhat^ij in near-equilibrium QCD is controlled by the medium shear-stress tensor within the 14-moment approximation.
Suppression of high-pT hadrons in peripheral Pb+Pb collisions is predominantly driven by initial-state geometric bias rather than final-state jet quenching.
The work presents a dispersive fit for the refractive index of liquid argon incorporating anomalous dispersion and proposes jet drift in simulations of heavy-ion collisions as a way to disentangle medium properties from energy loss.
Bayesian posteriors from JETSCAPE jet-quenching model are largely compatible across centrality but exhibit shifts across beam energy and observable class, with varying ability to predict complementary datasets.
Minijet thermalization time in a thermal gluon plasma scales with the jet quenching parameter q-hat once recoiling medium contributions are added to standard transport coefficient definitions.
AMPT model calculations indicate that forward-backward asymmetry in D0 meson RpPb and v2 in 8.16 TeV p-Pb collisions arises from initial-state cold nuclear effects and final-state partonic interactions, with coalescence-fragmentation competition shaping the pT and rapidity dependence, suggesting par
