摘      要:The unexpectedly strong suppression of high pT heavy quarks in heavy-ion collisions has given rise to the idea that partons propagating through a medium in addition to energy loss by induced radiation also undergo substantial energy loss due to elastic collisions. However, the precise magnitude of this elastic energy-loss component is highly controversial. Although for a parton inside a medium it is surprisingly difficult to define the difference between elastic and radiative processes rigorously, the main phenomenological difference is in the dependence of energy loss on in-medium path length: in a constant medium radiative energy loss is expected to grow quadratically with path length, elastic energy loss linearly. In this article, we investigate a class of energy-loss models with such a linear path-length dependence and demonstrate that they are incompatible with measured data on hard hadronic back-to-back correlations where a substantial variation of path length is probed. This indicates that any elastic energy-loss component has to be small.
