Intro

The TMDICE Monte Carlo shower program and algorithm for jet-fragmentation via coherent medium induced radiations and scatterings

• Martin Rohrmoser

Parton jets in the hot and dense medium of a Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP) can undergo multiple processes of scatterings off medium particles as well as processes of coherent medium induced radiations. A Monte-Carlo algorithm and resulting program is presented that allows to obtain jets that were formed by these two types of processes from an initial highly energetic quark or gluon. The program accounts for the increase in the momentum components of jet-particles transverse to the jet-axis due to processes of scattering as well as medium induced radiations in addition to energy-loss due to the medium induced radiations.
