Abstract
In the past decade the observation of cross section modification for leading hadrons, heavy flavor and two particle correlations in heavy ion collisions has provided important insights into the dynamics of parton propagation in dense strongly-interacting matter. The development of the theory of reconstructed jets and related experimental measurements have further shed light on the characteristics of in-medium parton showers. So far, experimental results from ultra-relativistic nuclear collisions at RHIC and LHC have been analyzed in the framework of parton energy loss, where the precision of the theoretical predictions cannot be systematically improved. Only recently have higher order calculations and applications of resummation and evolution to heavy ion collisions begun to emerge. Several examples of such advances are discussed in these proceedings.
