For the first time we investigate non-equilibrium dynamic properties of a plasma consisting of confining gluons resulting from Gribov quantization [1]. For this purpose we employ the infrared-improved Gribov dispersion relation of gluons in the kinetic theory setup in the relaxation time approximation and determine the exact in- and out-of-equilibrium evolution of the system. In the static...

A matrix model of the semi-QGP, the region near the critical
temperature, developed for the pure glue theory is applied
to QCD with dynamical quarks. We add new parameters to
address the spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry breaking.
The results of the model are compared to the latest results
from numerical simulations on the lattice. We compute the interaction measure, the...

Effective field theory (EFT) is a powerful framework based on exploiting symmetries and controlled expansions for problems with a natural separation of energy or distance scales. EFTs are particularly important in QCD and nuclear physics. An effective theory of QCD, ideally suited to jet applications, is Soft-Collinear Effective Theory (SCET). Recently, first steps were taken to extend SCET...

The description of the modifications of the coherence pattern of the parton shower when in the presence of a QGP has been actively addressed in recent studies. Among the several achievements, finite energy corrections, transverse momentum broadening due to medium interactions and interference effects between successive emissions has been extensively improved as they seem to be essential...
