TLDR
In this article, the rescattering and energy loss of hard partons in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions has been simulated using a Monte Carlo tool introduced to modify a standard PYTHIA jet event.
Abstract
The method to simulate the rescattering and energy loss of hard partons in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions has been developed. The model is a fast Monte Carlo tool introduced to modify a standard PYTHIA jet event. The full heavy ion event is obtained as a superposition of a soft hydro-type state and hard multi-jets. The model is applied to the analysis of the jet quenching pattern at RHIC.

Pileup subtraction using jet areas

TL;DR: In this paper, a technique based on jet areas is proposed to provide jet-by-jet corrections for pileup and underlying-event effects, which can be used with any jet algorithm that can be sensibly defined.

Highly relativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions: The central rapidity region

TL;DR: In this paper, the space-time evolution of the hadronic matter produced in the central rapidity region in extreme relativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions is described, based on the existence of a flat central plateau and on the applicability of hydrodynamics.

High-energy physics event generation with PYTHIA 6.1

TL;DR: Pythia version 6 represents a merger of the Pythia 5, Jetset 7 and SPythia programs, with many improvements as discussed by the authors, which can be used to generate high-energy physics events.

Heavy-quark colorimetry of QCD matter

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider propagation of heavy quarks in QCD matter and show that the radiative quark energy loss appears to be qualitatively different from that of light quarks at all energies of practical importance.
