Jet Quenching Parameter Via Soft Collinear Effective Theory (SCET)

We analyze the transverse momentum broadening in the absence of radiation of an energetic parton propagating through quark-gluon plasma via Soft Collinear Effective Theory (SCET). We show that the probability for picking up transverse momentum k⊥ is given by the Fourier transform of the expectation...
