Abstract
We investigate the response of non-expanding deconfined hot matter to energy and momentum deposition from a pair of partons moving with high energies. Several situations are examined with partons moving so that the generated wakes in the medium interact. It is shown that the streams generated in the wakes, which carry deposited momentum, interact and merge if the hard partons are close enough to each other. Such cases are relevant for nuclear collisions at the Large Hadron Collider, where several hard partons are produced in a single collision. The observed effect itself could lead to elliptic flow at the level of a few per cent.
