Abstract
Propagation of hard parton jets through expanding quark-gluon plasma i s studied in the hydrodynamic approximation. The effects of viscosity and transverse expansion of plasma on the intensity of jet rescatterin g are estimated. The possibility of using the A dependence of the mean noncoplanarity of a hard dijet to probe expanding matter produced in symmetric ultrarelativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions is analyzed.
