20. High Multiplicity pp and pA Collisions: Hydrodynamics at its Edge and Explosive Stringy Pomeron

Edward Shuryak (stony brook university)

17/05/2013, 11:00

High Multiplicity pp and pA Collisions are a place where the macroscopic description (thermodynamics and hydrodynamics) meets with the microscopic one (pomerons and QCD strings). First I discuss what happens with the hydrodynamical predictions as the system size gets smaller and smaller. For simplicity, we don't do it numerically, but analytically using Gubser$^\prime$ s flow. We found that...

7. Explore the high-density QCD medium via particle correlations in pPb collisions at CMS

Wei Li (MIT)

17/05/2013, 14:00

The observation of a long-range, near-side two-particle correlation ("ridge") in very high multiplicity proton-proton and proton-lead collisions has opened up the opportunity of studying collective phenomena in these small systems. High luminosity pPb data were collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC in early 2013. New results of identified particle spectra, two- and multi-particle...

8. Azimuthal anisotropies in lead-lead and proton-lead collisions with the ATLAS detector

Barbara Krystyna Wosiek (Polish Academy of Sciences (PL))

17/05/2013, 14:40

The presentation will give an overview of measurements of azimuthal anisotropies performed by the ATLAS collaboration using Pb+Pb collisions at sqrt(s_NN)=2.76 TeV and p+Pb collisions at sqrt(s_NN)=5.02 TeV.

18. Hadron-Nucleus Interactions: What we have learned.

Larry McLerran (BNL)

18/05/2013, 09:00

I will describe the early development of ideas and experiments on hadron-nucleus interactions that have led to modern theories of high energy hadronic interactions. These developments proved crucial for basic understanding of ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions, but perhaps more importantly, radically changed our preconceptions, and led to modern QCD based descriptions of high energy...

15. Study of dijet momentum balance and pseudorapidity in pPb collisions

Yen-Jie Lee (CERN)

18/05/2013, 12:10

Studies of dijet production in pPb collisions at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy of 5.02 TeV using the CMS detector are presented. Jets are reconstructed with the anti-kT algorithm with R=0.3, using combined information from tracking and calorimetry. The dijet momentum balance, azimuthal angle correlations and pseudorapidity distributions are studied and compared to results from PYTHIA...
