TL;DR
This paper calculates the probability distribution of transverse momentum broadening for energetic quarks or gluons traveling through a weakly coupled quark-gluon plasma in thermal equilibrium.
Contribution
It provides a detailed calculation of the transverse momentum distribution, enhancing understanding of parton propagation in quark-gluon plasma.
Findings
Derived the probability distribution P(k_) for momentum broadening.
Quantified the effects of weak coupling on transverse momentum transfer.
Improved theoretical models of jet quenching in quark-gluon plasma.
Abstract
We calculate the probability distribution P(k_\perp) for the momentum perpendicular to its original direction of motion that an energetic quark or gluon picks up as it propagates through weakly coupled quark-gluon plasma in thermal equilibrium.
