The space-time structure of jet quenching: theory and experiment

EMMI Rapid Reaction Task Force (RRTF)

The space-time structure of jet quenching: theory and experiment

The meeting is by invitation only.
The symposium on Monday, August 12th, is open for all interested (no registration needed).

This Rapid Reaction Task Force will explore the diagnostic power of the Lund Diagram, as well as related versions of it, in constraining the space-time evolution of jet showers ploughing through the dynamically evolving fireballs of dense quark-gluon matter created in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. During the RRTF meeting, Lund-type phase space representations of a broad variety of jet shower evolution codes will be compared with each other, as well as with similar representations of available experimental data.

The overarching goal of the RRTF is to bring together experts from diverse efforts world-wide working on similar problems. An important outcome of the meeting will be a commonly written report, ideally to be published in a journal.
