Abstract: (Elsevier)
Jet quenching in high energy nuclear collisions is shown to provide new information on the energy loss mechanisms in dense matter near the quark-gluon plasma transition. In addition it is shown that A dependence of the inclusive p T spectra in p + A provides novel constraints on gluon shadowing in nuclei.
