【 摘 要 】

Key features of jet-medium interactions in heavy-ion collisions are modifications to the jet structure. Recent results from experiments at the LHC and RHIC have motivated several theoretical calculations and Monte Carlo models towards predicting these observables simultaneously. In this proceedings, the recoil picture in JEWEL is summarized and two independent procedures through which background subtraction can be performed in JEWEL are introduced. Information of the medium recoil in JEWEL significantly improves its description of several jet shape measurements.
