Abstract
We study the radiative correction to p⊥-broadening of a fast quark in a quark–gluon plasma beyond the soft gluon approximation. We find that the radiative processes can suppress considerably p⊥-broadening. This differs dramatically from previous calculations to logarithmic accuracy in the soft gluon approximation, predicting a considerable enhancement of p⊥-broadening.
