Abstract In this paper we present a study of in-medium jet modifications performed with JEWEL and PYTHIA 6.4, focusing on the uncertainties related to variations of the perturbative scales and nuclear parton distribution functions (PDFs) and on the impact of the initial and crossover temperature variations of the medium. The simulations are compared to LHC data for the jet spectrum and the nuclear modification factor. We assess the interplay between the choice of nuclear PDFs and different medium parameters and study the impact of nuclear PDFs and the medium on the jet structure via the Lund plane.

The constituent quarks are interpreted as bound states, which have an internal structure. The quark distributions of the proton are related to those of the constituent quarks. The experiments support this hypothesis. Likewise the spin structure of the proton is related to the spin structure of the constituent quarks. We find that about 30% of the spin of a constituent quark is given by the valence quark, and 70% are provided by the gluons.

Centrality dependence of nuclear modification factor at high pT above 4 GeV /c is studied in nucleus–nucleus collisions at [Formula: see text]. We find that the centrality dependence of the nuclear modification factor can be factorized as a Boltzmann function F(b). Comparing our model calculation with PHENIX data, we further confirm that the high pT spectrum of particles is dominated by surface emission.
