Abstract

We study the evolution of full jet shower in quark-gluon plasma via solving a set of coupled differential transport equations for the three-dimensional momentum distributions of quarks and gluons contained in the full jets. The evolution equations include all partonic splitting processes as well as the collisional energy loss and transverse momentum broadening for both the leading and radiated partons of the full jets. Combining with realistic hydrodynamic simulation for the space-time evolution of the fireball created in Pb+Pb collisions at 2.76A TeV, we calculate the nuclear modification of single inclusive full jet spectra, the momentum imbalance of photon-jet and dijet pairs, and jet shape function (at partonic level). The roles of various jet-medium interaction mechanisms on the modification of full jet energy and internal structure are studied.
