We investigate ultra-relativistic collisions of the light nuclei with heavy targets at energies available at CERN SPS and show that the harmonic flow measures based on ratios of cumulant moments are particularly suited to study the intrinsic deformation of the light nuclei wave functions. That way one can probe the expected clusterization in the ground state, which leads to large initial...

We investigate ultrarelativistic p-9Be and p-7Be collisions.
It is shown that the clustered structure of beryllium leads to large
(order of magnitude, thus possibly observable) effects in the
distribution of the participant nucleons in the case when berillium is
polarized. In general, our method can be used to probe the structure of
light nuclei whose ground state spin is nonzero.

Using the AdS/CFT correspondence we study non-equilibrium dynamics and the
approach to the hydrodynamic region of N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills
theory at strong coupling. We numerically evolve over 600 randomly
generated far-from equilibrium initial conditions, characterized by an
initial entropy. Based on this fairly large sample we confirm previous
observations of early thermalization...

The recently measured centrality dependence of high energy jets in proton-lead collisions at the LHC is investigated. We conjecture that events with jets of very high energy (a few hundred GeV) are characterized by a suppressed number of soft particles thus shifting these events into more peripheral bins. This naturally results in the suppression (enhancement) of the nuclear modification...

The NA61/SHINE experiment studies the onset of deconfinement in strongly
interacting matter by performing a two-dimensional scan of particle
production in beam momentum (13A, 20A, 30A, 40A, 75A and 150A GeV/c)
and system size (p+p, 7Be+9Be, Ar+Sc, Xe+La, Pb+Pb).
In this contribution, single particle spectra of pions, kaons and protons
produced in inelastic p+p...

Based on the exact solution of Boltzmann kinetic equation in the relaxation-time
approximation, the precision of the two most recent formulations of relativistic second-order non-conformal viscous hydrodynamics (14-moment approximation and causal Chapman-Enskog method), standard Israel-Stewart theory, and anisotropic hydrodynamics framework, in the simple case of one-dimensional Bjorken...

New formulation of leading-order anisotropic hydrodynamics
----------------------------------------------------------
In ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions nuclear matter is heated to a
temperature exceeding that necessary to create a quark-gluon plasma (QGP).
Traditionally, second order viscous hydrodynamics has been used to
reproduce the soft collective flow of the QGP and...
