Description
Jet-medium interactions in the Quark-Gluon Plasma can receive large non-perturbative infrared contributions. These contributions affect transverse jet momentum broadening and jet quenching. Both are influenced by the modified in-medium dispersion of jets encoded in their asymptotic mass.
An IR-safe computation of the latter requires subtracting the unphysical UV limit of electrostatic QCD (EQCD), a long distance EFT of thermal QCD, and supplying the correct UV limit obtained from Minkowski-time QCD. We perform the first step of this procedure in calculating the necessary operators in EQCD both analytically and on the lattice. We find compelling agreement of the two methods in the ultraviolet regime.
