Abstract content
Modifications of the structure of jets produced in ion-ion collisions represent a very sensitive tool to study the interactions of partons with the medium. Partonic energy loss manifests itself as a decrease of the number of particles carrying a high fraction of the jet energy and, the additional radiated energy, increases the number of low-energy particles.
We present and analysis of jets produced in ion-ion collisions at LHC energies. Predictions with two different Monte Carlo simulation models (PYQUEN and q-PYTHIA) for the parton energy loss, are analized together with modification of the jet structure.
