Interference effects in medium-induced gluon radiation
hep-ph 2011-05 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

For a color-singlet quark-antiquark dipole in a dense QCD medium, the interference between medium-induced gluon emissions is suppressed by the ratio of a coherence time to the medium length whenever the dipole opening...
Jets in QCD media: from color coherence to decoherence
hep-ph 2011-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

Multiple scatterings in a dense medium drive a quark-antiquark antenna from color coherence to total decoherence, so that in an opaque medium the quark and antiquark radiate as independent vacuum emitters.
