    High-energy proton-proton (pp) collisions at large final state particle multiplicities exhibit heavy ion-like behaviors. Among many others, one of the peculiar feature of heavy ions is partonic energy loss (aka jet quenching) in the produced Quark-Gluon Plasma. The search for jet quenching effects also in small collision systems (such as pp) is warranted. To date no evidence of jet quenching...

    Studying the quenching of high momentum particles in collision systems of various shapes and sizes provides crucial insights on the initial conditions and the transport properties of the QGP. Such insights can be obtained via investigations of the high transverse momentum ($p_T$) anisotropy harmonics and their collision energy and system-size dependence. We present the beam-energy and...

    The initial stages of heavy-ion collisions
    bullet talk (poster)

    In heavy-ion collisions, the observed non-zero second-order azimuthal anisotropy coefficient, $v_{2}$, for particles with high transverse momenta $\it{p}_{\rm T}$ is driven by the path-length dependent energy loss of hard partons travelling in the QGP, known as the jet quenching effect. Recent measurements show also a non-zero $v_{2}$ values for high $\it{p}_{\rm T}$ charged particles at high...

    long-range correlations along $\Delta\eta$ that are strikingly similar to
    those seen in heavy-ion collisions.

    We establish the existence of a far-from-equilibrium attractor in weakly-coupled gauge theory undergoing one-dimensional Bjorken expansion. We demonstrate that the resulting far-from-equilibrium evolution is insensitive to certain features of the initial condition, including both the initial momentum-space anisotropy and initial occupancy. We find that this insensitivity extends beyond the...

    Probing the quark gluon plasma in small system is a hot topic nowadays. By combining the thermal and hard parts, with the Cooper-Frye freeze-out, quark coalescence and hard parton fragmentation hadronization mechanisms, we investigate the $p_T$-spectra, the differential elliptic flow and the number of constituent quark (NCQ) scaling of pions, kaons and protons of high multiplicity p+ Pb...

    The exploration of the fundamental structures of nucleon and nucleus has always thrived on the complementarity of lepton scattering and purely hadronic probes. With the Electron Ion Collider (EIC) on the horizon, it becomes more urgent than ever to complete key measurements in this regard with high precision in hadonic $p$+$p$ and $p$+Au collisions during the final years of RHIC running.

    One of the most important discoveries at the LHC is the observation of collective-like behavior and strangeness enhancement in small collision systems (e.g. pp and p-Pb collisions). They effects are strikingly similar to those observed in heavy-ion collisions, where they are attributed to the production of a deconfined hot and dense medium, known as strongly interacting Quark-Gluon Plasma. In...

    The axial-vector form factors of the decuplet baryons are investigated in the chiral constituent quark model using their explicit quark spin polarizations. The ``quark sea'' arises from the chiral symmetry breaking which results in the Goldstone bosons mediating the interaction between constituent quarks. The axial-vector form factors which have some physical significance corresponding to...

    We present a way to construct 3D initial conditions for relativistic heavy-ion collisions based on the Glauber collision geometry [1]. Local energy and momentum conservation conditions are imposed to set non-trivial constraints on our longitudinal profilesโ€™ parameterizations for the systemโ€™s initial energy density and flow velocity. We show that the $\sqrt{T_A T_B}$ scaling of initial energy...

    The charmonium states with their different binding energies and radii dissolve at different temperatures of the medium produced in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Relative yields of charmonium and thus their survival have potential to map the properties of Quark Gluon Plasma, the medium created in the collisions. In this study, we estimate the combined effect of color screening,...

    Dileptons are a prime probe of the deconfined state of strongly interacting matter, the quark--gluon plasma (QGP), produced in high-energy heavy-ion collisions, as they are not affected by strong interactions after their creation.
    A measurement of the thermal radiation from the QGP in the mass region between the $\phi$ and the $\rm J/\psi$ allows to estimate the medium temperature. In this...

    Collective phenomena in heavy-ion collisions are very sensitive to initial geometry including nuclei deformation effects. Recent hydrodynamic model calculations suggest that such deformation effects can be probed by studying event-by-event mean $p_T$ ($\left \langle p_T \right \rangle$) fluctuation and the correlation between mean $p_T$ and harmonic flow. In particular, due to prolate shape of...

    No existing model for the initial stages of a heavy-ion collision, when used as initial conditions for hydrodynamics simulations, can provide a satisfactory description of flow in ultra-central collisions. It is therefore useful to understand what properties the initial stages must have in order to be compatible with experimental data. To this end, we parameterize the early-time energy density...

    Multiparticle correlation techniques have been used to study the nature of long-range collectivity in small collision systems. The subevent cumulant method was shown to significantly reduce the nonflow contributions compared to the standard cumulant method. However, a jet could fall across the boundary between two neighboring subevents and residual nonflow exists in this method. Requiring an...

    Jet quenching is a possible consequence of the formation of a quark-gluon plasma (QGP) in collision systems, but to date no significant jet quenching has been observed in small systems. At the same time final states of pp and pPb collisions with large underlying event activity exhibit collective behavior that resembles hydrodynamic evolution. It is believed that observed level of the...
