We present a comprehensive review of the physics of hadron and jet production at large transverse momentum in high-energy nucleus-nucleus collisions. Emphasis is put on experimental and theoretical "jet quenching" observables that provide direct information on the (thermo)dynamical properties of hot and dense QCD matter.

  1. Collisional energy loss distribution of a fast parton in a hot or dense QCD medium

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    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.

  2. Bayesian Constraints on Pre-Equilibrium Jet Quenching and Predictions for Oxygen Collisions

    hep-ph 2025-09 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Bayesian constraints on early-time jet quenching from large collision systems yield predictions of measurable energy loss in oxygen-oxygen collisions.

  3. Dijet invariant mass of charged-particle jets in pp and p-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}} = 5.02$ TeV

    nucl-ex 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    The first measurement of charged-particle dijet invariant mass spectra shows no significant nuclear modification in p-Pb collisions at low masses.

  4. Minijet thermalization and jet transport coefficients in QCD kinetic theory

    hep-ph 2025-10 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    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.

  5. Measurement of isolated-prompt photon$-$hadron correlations in Pb$-$Pb collisions at $\mathbf{\sqrt{\textit{s}_{\rm NN}} = 5.02}$ TeV

    nucl-ex 2026-05 accept novelty 4.0

    ALICE observes strong suppression of associated hadron yields per trigger photon in central Pb-Pb collisions at 5.02 TeV, extending the kinematic reach of photon-hadron correlation measurements.
