Description
I will discuss the inclusion of medium-modified splitting functions, according to the BDMPS approximation, in parton shower generators. Particular care will be taken about the implementation in the HERWIG algorithm, which satisfies the angular ordering prescription. I will present results on transverse momentum, angle and energy distributions, which exhibit remarkable medium effects.
