Over the last decades, the theoretical picture of how hadronic jets interact with nuclear matter has been extended to account for the medium’s finite longitudinal length and expansion. However, only recently a first-principle approach has been developed that allows to couple the jet evolution to the medium flow and anisotropic structure. In this talk, I will review these developments, and discuss the features of jet quenching in evolving matter. I will consider the modifications of the single particle momentum broadening distribution and single-gluon production rate, and briefly discuss the potential phenomenological implications.

He received his PhD from MIT in 2017, and joined LANL as an Oppenheimer fellow the same year. He moved to University of Santiago de Compostela in 2020, and was awarded a Marie-Curie fellowship in the same year. Currently, Andrey is a junior researcher at LIP, Lisbon with a position funded by the Portuguese foundation for science and technology.
