abstract

We study whether in-medium showers of high-energy gluons can be treated as a sequence of individual splitting processes $g{\to}gg$, or whether there is significant quantum overlap between where one splitting ends and the next begins. Accounting for the Landau-Pomeranchuk-Migdal (LPM) effect, we calculate such overlap effects to leading order in high-energy $\alpha_{\rm s}(\mu)$ for the simplest theoretical situation. We investigate a measure of overlap effects that is independent of physics that can be absorbed into an effective value $\hat q_{\rm eff}$ of the jet-quenching parameter $\hat q$.

  1. Gluon radiation from a QCD antenna with realistic parton-medium interactions

    hep-ph 2026-07 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    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.

  2. Are Parton Showers in a Quark-Gluon Plasma Strongly Coupled? A Theorist's Test

    hep-ph 2025-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Overlap corrections to in-medium QCD parton showers are about 0.005 in the large-Nf limit, confirming that showers can be treated as independent splittings.

  3. Non-linear dynamics of jet quenching

    hep-ph 2024-11 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Jet energy loss out of the cone is governed by a non-linear rate equation whose solution feeds a non-linear DGLAP evolution, enabling resummation of alpha_s ln(1/R), alpha_s ln(R/theta_c), and powers of alpha_s L.

    hep-ph 2025-08 conditional novelty 2.0 of 10

    A historical and technical review of jet quenching in heavy-ion collisions, covering four decades of theory, the RHIC discovery, and modern Bayesian extractions of the jet transport parameter qhat.
