The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) is fully equipped to measure leptonic decays of electroweak probes in the high multiplicity environment of nucleus-nucleus collisions. Electroweak boson production is an important benchmark process at hadron colliders. Precise measurements of W and Z production in heavy-ion collisions can help to constrain nuclear PDFs as well as serve as a standard candle of...

One of the major goals of jet and high pT measurements in heavy-ion collisions is the quantification of the medium-modified fragmentation of hard scattered partons. Here, the aim in the reconstruction of jets, as compared to single particle measurements, is to gain a larger sensitivity to the possibly modified structure of the parton shower. It aims at the understanding of the detailed...

Using a microscopic transport model we investigate the evolution of conical structures originating from the supersonic jet
through the hot matter and dense matter of ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions. We found that the Mach cone angle
is influenced by the source term properties, energy deposition and viscosity. While in a static medium a possible
double-peak structure is overshadowed...

Measurements of high-pT processes in lead-lead collisions can
provide insight on the physics responsible for the quenching
of jets in the quark gluon plasma. Results will be presented
from ATLAS measurements of single jet suppression, both inclusively
and as a function of the azimuthal angle of the jets with respect
to the elliptic flow plane, single jet fragmentation, and...

Within a multi-phase transport (AMPT) model, the transverse momentum asymmetries for $\gamma$-jet and di-jet are studied in Pb+Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{_{\rm NN}}}$ = 2.76 TeV. A large asymmetry is produced by strong interactions between jets and partonic matter rather than by hadronic interactions only. It is demonstrated that final hadronic processes such as hadronization and hadronic...

Appearance of a quark matter in the core region of hybrid stars is the main issue in such compact stars because the central density of the star is sufficiently high for the nuclear matter to undergo a further change into other exotic phase which consist of hyperons and quarks. Therefore a quark matter is expected in the core region but many theoretical calculation suggest that the inner...
