Description
The interaction of a jet with the medium created in heavy-ion collisions is not yet fully understood from a QCD-perspective. This is mainly due to the nonperturbative nature of this interaction which affects both, transverse jet momentum broadening and jet quenching.
We review how lattice simulations of Electrostatic QCD can be properly extrapolated to the continuum, which operators to measure and extract from the data, and how to promote these operators to full, fourdimensional QCD. Finally, we show how these results translate to phenomenological calculations.
