We present Monte-Carlo simulations of jet evolution in lead-lead collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN focusing on the dijet asymmetry measured by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations. In the simulation, hard partons are interacting with the hydrodynamical background medium, undergoing radiative and collisional processes. The measured dijet asymmetry is well described by the simulation and is hence consistent with partonic energy loss in a hot, strongly-interacting medium.
