In these proceedings, we compare the various approximations made in these different schemes, especially those regarding the structure of the medium through which jets propagate. Following this, we highlight some of the major differences in the various physical processes contained in the different approaches.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2008-10-08T19:31:53.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "25.75.Dw", "11.10.Wx", "12.38.Mh" ], "keywords": [ "jet quenching calculations", "characterizations", "dense matter", "hard jets", "jets propagate" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 8, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 798861, "adsabs": "2008arXiv0810.1367M" } } }
