Reaction operator approach to non-abelian energy loss

TL;DR: In this paper, a systematic expansion of induced gluon radiation associated with jet production in a dense QCD plasma is derived using a reaction operator formalism, which leads to a simple algebraic proof of the color triviality of single inclusive distributions and a solvable set of recursion relations.

Hadron production in heavy ion collisions: Fragmentation and recombination from a dense parton phase

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that hadrons at transverse momenta are formed by recombination of partons from the dense parton phase created in central collisions at RHIC.

QCD and strongly coupled gauge theories: challenges and perspectives

Nora Brambilla, +53 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the progress, current status, and open challenges of QCD-driven physics, in theory and in experiment, are highlighted, highlighting how the strong interaction is intimately connected to a broad sweep of physical problems, in settings ranging from astrophysics and cosmology to strongly coupled, complex systems in particle and condensed-matter physics, as well as searches for physics beyond the Standard Model.

Fully quantum treatment of the Landau-Pomeranchik- Migdal effect in QED and QCD

TL;DR: A rigorous quantum treatment of the Landau-Pomeranchuk-Migdal effect in QED and QCD is given for the first time in this article, where the rate of photon (gluon) radiation by an electron (quark) in a medium is expressed in terms of the Green's function of a two-dimensional Schrodinger equation with an imaginary potential.

Multiple collisions and induced gluon Bremsstrahlung in QCD

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derived the non-abelian analog of the Landau-Pomeranchuk effect that suppresses induced soft radiation with formation times exceeding the mean free path.
