MOTIVATION
¢ Shear and bulk viscosity are transport coefficients that determine how fast the system goes to the equilibrium.*
¢ All information about dissipative terms are in Collisional Kernel:
¢ Sending an energetic parton jet through QGP, one obtains the main dissipative mechanisms are to be collisional (22) and radiative (23) ones.**

q Ghosts: § Mathematical creatures that make the theory consistent
§ Breaking symmetry among system paths picking up the physical one

CALCULATION OF CUT DIAGRAMS*
I. Construct the expression for each diagram using Feynman Rules
II. Remove the factor for each cut propagator
III. Multiply the result by -1 (using T matrix instead of S)
IV. For a given diagram calculate the one with gluons loops replaced with ghost one.
V. Multiply each ghost diagram by
VI. Add them up.

CONCLUSIONS AND FUTURE STUDIES
¢ Categorization of the higher order diagrams seems quite essential because of shear number of diagrams involved.
¢ Cut-diagram method is a very helpful technique.
¢ Making the computer programs that are able to produce and calculate diagrams seems necessary and timesaving.
¢ Having calculated the inelastic gluon scattering, one can see if anisotropic Hydro. is sensitive to the process of this kind.
