The physics of the quenching of hard jets in dense matter is briefly
reviewed. This is presented within the framework of the partonic medium
modification of the fragmentation functions. Modifications in both deeply
inelastic scattering (DIS) off large nuclei and high-energy heavy-ion
collisions are presented.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures, Proceedings of the First Meeting of the APS
