## TL;DR

This paper develops a coupled jet-fluid model to study how full jets are modified in quark-gluon plasma, emphasizing the role of hydrodynamic medium response in jet quenching and structure changes.

## Contribution

It introduces a novel coupled jet-fluid framework that accounts for energy-momentum exchange between jets and medium, including jet-induced flow effects.

## Key findings

- Jet-induced flow significantly affects jet shape at large angles.
- Including medium response enhances jet suppression dependence on cone size.
- Model predicts stronger jet modifications in Pb+Pb collisions at 2.76 TeV.

## Abstract

We study the nuclear modifications of full jets and their structures in relativistic heavy-ion collisions including the effect of hydrodynamic medium response to jet quenching. To study the evolutions of the full jet shower and the traversed medium with energy and momentum exchanges between them, we formulate a coupled jet-fluid model consisting of a set of jet transport equations and relativistic hydrodynamics equations with source terms. In our model, the full jet shower interacts with the medium and gets modified via collisional and radiative processes during the propagation. Meanwhile, the energy and momentum are deposited from the jet shower to the medium and then evolve with the medium hydrodynamically. The full jet defined by a cone size in the final state includes the jet shower and the particles produced from jet-induced flow. We apply our model to calculate the full jet energy loss and the nuclear modifications of jet rate and shape in Pb+Pb collisions at $2.76{\rm A~TeV}$. It is found that the inclusion of jet-induced flow contribution leads to stronger jet-cone size dependence for jet energy loss and jet suppression. Jet-induced flow also has a significant contribution to jet shape function and dominates at large angles away from the jet axis.
