abstract
We present calculations in which an energetic light quark shoots through a finite slab of strongly coupled ${\cal N}=4$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) plasma, with thickness $L$, focussing on what comes out on the other side. We find that even when the "jets" that emerge from the plasma have lost a substantial fraction of their energy they look in almost all respects like "jets" in vacuum with the same reduced energy. The one possible exception is that the opening angle of the "jet" is larger after passage through the slab of plasma than before. Along the way, we obtain a fully geometric characterization of energy loss in the strongly coupled plasma and show that $dE_{\rm out}/dL \propto L^2/\sqrt{x^2_{\rm stop}-L^2}$, where $E_{\rm out}$ is the energy of the "jet" that emerges from the slab of plasma and $x_{\rm stop}$ is the (previously known) stopping distance for the light quark in an infinite volume of plasma.

Visualizing How the Structure of Large-Radius Jets Shapes Their Wakes
Hybrid Model simulations show ATLAS large-radius jet data rule out fully coherent jet energy loss, and low-pT jet-shape observables can visualize merging subjet wakes.

Mapping jet substructure in heavy-ion collisions with track functions
Track functions exhibit model-dependent modifications to higher moments in heavy-ion jets, with RG flows qualitatively preserved, enabling discrimination between jet quenching pictures.

Stochastic Dynamics of Heavy Quarks in Strongly Coupled Plasma
Kolmogorov dynamics for heavy quarks in hot plasma shows significantly delayed large-momentum equilibration compared to Fokker-Planck with matched drag, due to rare low-momentum-loss events.

Constraining the Resolution Length of Quark-Gluon Plasma with New Jet Substructure Measurements
Jet substructure measurements from ALICE and ATLAS, modeled with the Hybrid Model, disfavor both fully coherent and fully incoherent energy loss, implying a finite QGP resolution length near 1/(pi T).

What is the Quark-Gluon Plasma made of?
The quark-gluon plasma is best described as a strongly coupled liquid of massive, very short-lived quark and gluon quasiparticles, with sound (phonon) modes becoming the most well-defined collective excitation at low momenta.
