Abstract: | We argue that the radiative energy loss of a parton traversing the quark–gluon plasma is determined by Landau damping of soft
modes in the plasma. Using this idea, we calculate the jet quenching parameter of a gluon. The calculation is done in SU(3)
quenched QCD within the stochastic vacuum model. At the LHC-relevant temperatures, the result depends on the gluon condensate,
the vacuum correlation length, and the gluon Debye mass. Numerically, when the temperature varies from T=Tc to T = 900 MeV, the jet quenching parameter rises from to approximately 1.8 GeV2/fm. We compare our results with the predictions of perturbative QCD and other calculations. |
