Abstract
The Jewel 10 Monte Carlo simulates jet evolution in a medium with a microscopic description of splitting and scattering processes In the framework of this model we investigate the transverse momentum broadening due to medium effects in different scenarios Depending on assumptions about hadronisation we observe either a small increase or even a slight decrease of the mean transverse momentum but no sizeable broadening This appears to be a natural consequence of a model formulation which conserves energy and momentum microscopically at each splitting and at each scattering
