FIELDS, PARTICLES, AND NUCLEI
Jet quenching with running coupling including radiative and collisional energy losses
B. G. Zakharov Landau Institute for Theoretical Physics RAS, Moscow, 117334, Russia
Abstract:
We calculate the nuclear modification factor for RHIC and LHC conditions accounting for the radiative and collisional parton energy loss with the running coupling constant. We find that the RHIC data can be explained both in the scenario with the chemically equilibrium quark-gluon plasma and purely gluonic plasma with slightly different thermal suppression of the coupling constant. The role of the parton energy gain due to gluon absorption is also investigated. Our results show that the energy gain gives negligible effect.
