Abstract
The propagation of hard parton jets through an expanding quark-gluon p lasma is investigated in the framework of hydrodynamical approach. The influence of viscosity and transverse expansion of plasma on the inte nsity of jet rescattering is estimated for initial conditions, predict ed to be achieved at LHC. The sensitivity of jet quenching and dijet a coplanarity to the space-time evolution of hot parton matter created i n ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions is analyzed.
