Abstract:
We extend the BDMPS formalism for calculating radiative energy loss to the case when the radiated gluon carries a finite fraction of the quark momentum. Some virtual terms, previously overlooked, are now included. The equivalence between the formalism of BDMPS and that of B.Zakharov is explicitly demonstrated.Note:
