Abstract

This paper presents an overview of a survey of jet substructure observables used to study modifications of jets induced by interaction with a Quark Gluon Plasma. We further outline ideas that were presented and discussed at the \textit{New jet quenching tools to explore equilibrium and non-equilibrium dynamics in heavy-ion collisions} workshop, which was held in February 2024 at the ECT$^{*}$ in Trento, Italy. The goal of this white paper is to provide a brief report on the study of jet quenching observables earlier conducted and to present new ideas that could be relevant for future explorations.
