Abstract
The induced momentum spectrum of soft gluons radiated from a high energy quark propagating through a QCD medium is derived in the BDMPS formalism. A calorimetric measurement for the medium dependent energy lost by a jet with opening angle $\theta_{{\rm cone}}$ is proposed.The fraction of this energy loss with respect to the integrated one appears to be the relevant observable.It exhibits a universal behaviour in terms of the variable $\theta^2_{{\rm cone}} L^3 \hat q$ where $L$ is the size of the medium and $\hat q$ the transport coefficient. Phenomenological implications for the differences between cold and hot QCD matter are discussed.
