Heavy flavor tagged jet evolution in QGP using the JETSCAPE framework*

The dynamics of shower development for a jet traveling through the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) involves a variety of scales, including the mass for heavy flavors in jets. Though the mass of the heavy quarks plays a subdominant role during the high virtuality portion of the jet, it does affect longitudinal drag and diffusion, stimulating additional radiation from heavy quarks. These emissions partially compensate the reduction in radiation from the dead cone effect. In the lower virtuality part of the shower, when the mass is comparable to the transverse momentum of the parton, scattering and radiation processes off heavy quarks are different than off light quarks. All these factors result in a different shower development for heavy-flavor tagged jets. We present a multi-stage calculation that explores the importance of differences between various heavy quark energy-loss mechanisms. The high virtuality and low virtuality stages of quarks and gluons are simulated by the MATTER and LBT model, respectively. Those partons evolve in a realistically expanding medium, modeled on an event-by-event basis using the JETSCAPE Framework.
