We find that in an opaque quark-gluon plasma, significant particle production
at high transverse momenta can occur via acceleration of (initially)
lower-momentum partons. This new mechanism, which is the opposite of parton
energy loss (jet quenching), has important implications for observables, such
as elliptic flow, in heavy-ion collisions at RHIC energies and above.
