Description
At LHC a full nonbiased jet reconstruction will be possible. That will allow to go beyond single inclusive measurements and to access more differential and exclusive observables such as fragmentation functions, intrajet correlations, jet shapes...the mechanisms of jet quenching and the properties of the medium will be more constrained. I will discuss on new Montecarlo tools for the simulation of the evolution of jets in medium as well as on the basic techinques/problems of the reconstruction of jets in HIC.
