The predicted value of the "jet quenching parameter" q, however, is rather small compared to the experimental results. For hot N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory, certain marginal deformations can have the effect of enhancing q. This result is highly sensitive to the location of the fundamental string's endpoints in the internal space.17 pages, 3 figures, additional comments and referencesHigh Energy Physics - TheoryHigh Energy Physics - Phenomenologytext
