Impact of scale, nuclear PDF and temperature variations on the interpretation of medium-modified jet production data from the LHC

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 var...
