We find that the radiative energy-loss for heavy quarks is larger than the collisional energy-loss for all energies. We point out the consequences on possible signals of the quark-gluon plasma.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1997-11-26T13:16:37.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "heavy quarks", "quark-gluon plasma", "radiative energy-loss", "relativistic heavy ion collisions", "collisional energy-loss" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "RevTeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 451607 } } }
