Are in-medium quark-gluon showers strongly coupled? results in the large-N f limit by Peter Arnold, Omar Elgedawy, Shahin Iqbal

“…Some of these effects can be absorbed into an effective value of a medium parameter known as q ̂ $$ \hat{q} $$ . Previous calculations (with certain simplifying assumptions) have found that, after adjusting the value of q ̂ $$ \hat{q} $$ , the leftover effect of overlapping splittings is quite small for purely gluonic large-N c showers but is very much larger for large-N f QED showers, at comparable values of Nα. …”
