Abstract

Comparing JEWEL simulations to PYTHIA simulation shows significantly lower jet width, Soft Drop groomed jet mass and ungroomed jet mass, while a higher $p_T D$ is found. This is observed for comparing 200 GeV p-p PYTHIA to 200 GeV Au-Au JEWEL simulations, as wel as for comparing 5020 GeV p-p PYTHIA to 5020 Pb-Pb JEWEL simulations. Of these shifts in averages the shift in jet width at 200 GeV is largest.
