Description

In this presentation we want to motivate a new technique to compute the momentum distribution for emission of an arbitrary number of gluons radiated from a high-pT quark passing through a QCD medium. The technique is an extension of the maximal helicity violating (MHV) method in which the usual soft-collinear factors are classified according to the gluon permutations symmetry. Based on the single gluon emission distribution, first we will present the distribution for the two gluon emissions in the assumption of a Poisson distribution. Second, we will show a rigorous technique using the MHV to compute the same distribution, and last we extract the non-abelian effect that break the Poissonnian pattern.
