28. An estimate of radiative energy-loss of charm quarks was also given in Ref. [21]. The results given here were obtained after more elaborate checks on the applicability of the approximation used by Gunion and Bertsch [13] and putting p' = 3T while getting Eq. (5). The results for radiative energy-loss plotted in Figs. (2) of Ref. [21] unfortunately are wrong by a factor of 1/łe ∼ 5 by which they should be multiplied. The results involving the collisional energy-loss given there are correct.
