Facing the guns, he jokes as well
As any Judge upon the Bench;
Between the crash of shell and shell
His laughter rings along the trench;
He seems immensely tickled by a
Projectile which he calls a "Black Maria."

In science:
Equation (4.1) is the specific form of the phase factor in the l ight cone gauge A− = 0 for a projectile moving in the negative z direction, so that the light cone coordinate x+ = (z + t)/√2 does not change during propagation through the target.

This wave function is the solution of the Dirac equation in the external color field A+ and in the limit of infinite projectile energy.
Jet Quenching in Heavy Ion Collisions
More generally, the eikonal for malism describes the interaction of any set of projectile partons with the target by a color rotation αi → βi of each projectile component i, resulting in an eikonal phase W (xi )αi βi .
Jet Quenching in Heavy Ion Collisions
Lorentz contracted to an infinitesimally thin pancake In the rest frame of the projectile.
Jet Quenching in Heavy Ion Collisions
As a consequence, the projectile cannot change its transverse position during the interaction, it propagates on an eikonal straight-line trajectory.
Jet Quenching in Heavy Ion Collisions
At high projectile energy, momentum transfer between projectile and target is predominantly transverse.
Jet Quenching in Heavy Ion Collisions
Longitudinal momentum transfer is suppressed by powers of projectile energy.
Jet Quenching in Heavy Ion Collisions
Expression (4.14) illustrates that the gluon energy distribution (4.12) contains information about the off-shellness of the projectile parton, since it allows for gluon radiation without medium interaction.
Jet Quenching in Heavy Ion Collisions
The condition L/τ1 < 1 then translates into the simple statement that a gluon can only scatter if at the time of the scattering it is an independent component of projectile wave function, that means, if it is formed.
Jet Quenching in Heavy Ion Collisions
These three contributions can be clearly isolated in the formal limit of a large distance between the location of projectile production and interaction with the medium.
Jet Quenching in Heavy Ion Collisions
Here, H (k) is the hard, medium-independent radiation (4.14) reduced by the probability w1 that one interaction of the projectile occurs in the medium.
Jet Quenching in Heavy Ion Collisions
This gluon is emitted due to multiple scattering if it picks up sufficient transverse momentum to d ecohere from the partonic projectile.
Jet Quenching in Heavy Ion Collisions
The price to pay for this theoretical clean situation is the limitation to a peculiar kinematic region in which projectile energies are of the order of the temperature, and where the temperature is very high (T ≫ Tc ) so that hard-thermal-loop improved perturbation theory is applicable.
