Title:The space-time structure of the energy deposition into the bulk medium due to jet quenching
View PDFAbstract:While jet quenching in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions is firmly established as a phenomenon resulting from the interplay between hard perturbative and soft fluid-dynamical Quantum Chromodynamics (or equivalently the interaction between hard probes and bulk QCD matter), less is known with certainty about the reaction of bulk matter to the passage of a jet. On general grounds, a jet interacting while passing through a medium represents a source of energy and momentum for the bulk matter fluid. If the precise form of such a source term is known, the reaction of the medium can be computed using fluid dynamics. Recent advances in the understanding of hard probes due to the wealth of data from RHIC and LHC allow to constrain the source term better by determining the energy flow away from hard modes. The aim of this work is to discuss what can be learned from such constraints in the context of the in-medium shower evolution code YaJEM-DE and to illustrate the role of fluctuations in the energy deposition.
