The Age of Computation is yet to Come
The theory of classical universal computation was laid down in 1936, was implemented within a decade, became commercial within another decade, and dominated the world’s economy half a century later. This success story relied on the progress in technology. As computers become faster they must become smaller. The history of computer technology has...

The order parameter that controls the chiral symmetry is the quark condensate $\langle \bar q q \rangle \sim \phi_a $.

Suppression of charmonia is one of the most distinctive signatures of Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) in heavy-ion collisions. Suppression can also take place in hadron-nucleus collisions due to cold nuclear matter (CNM) effects where the presence of QGP is not expected. The hadron-nucleus collisions are therefore important as they help to disentangle the effects of the QGP from those due to CNM....

NA61/SHINE conducts the search for a hypothesized critical point of strongly interacting matter by scanning in collision energy and mass of colliding nuclei. In this field, one of the key methods is to search for the intermittency signal that, if observed, can be related to the effect of the system self-similarity in the vicinity of a possible critical point. This would lead to the power-law...

Directed flow of particles is an important feature seen in heavy-ion collisions and is a sensitive probe of the equation of state (EoS) of the matter produced in the collisions. Model calculations have also predicted that directed flow could be a sensitive probe of the softening of EOS associated with a first order phase transition. Directed flow of protons and anti-protons are of particular...

Jets produced in heavy-ion collisions provide important information about the medium that they traverse. Their seeds, highly energetic partons that are created via hard scatterings during the collision, are affected by all different stages of the medium, including the pre-equilibrium precursor state of the quark-gluon plasma, which is known as the glasma. We will report on our numerical...

We revisit the picture of jets propagating in the quark-gluon plasma. In addition to vacuum radiation, related to the high initial virtuality of a jet, jet particles scatter on the medium constituents resulting in induced emissions. Analytical approaches to resumming these interactions have traditionally dealt separately with multiple, soft [1,2], or rare, hard scatterings [3,4]. A full...

Short-lived hadronic resonances are key tools to study the hadron-gas phase that characterizes the late-stage evolution of high-energy nuclear collisions. Regeneration and rescattering processes occurring in the hadron gas can be studied by measuring the yields of hadronic resonances and comparing them with model predictions with and without the simulation of hadronic interactions....

These conserved charges and their currents are generally coupled to each other, e.g. a baryon diffusion current also implies a current in electric charge.

Light nuclei are the delicate probes of ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions. Studying the light nuclei productions will help us to understand the nucleon emission source, the nucleosynthesis mechanism and the density fluctuations related to the critical point or first-order phase transition in heavy-ion collisions.

We study the possible existence of deconfine quark matter in the core of neutron stars. A relativistic mean field model is used to describe the nuclear matter at low densities while Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model is used to describe the quark matter at high densities. A Gibbs construct is used to describe the quark-hadron phase transition at large densities and at zero temperature. Within the...

The search for gluon saturation is one of the major goals of the future Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). Significant progress has been made in advancing saturation physics to a precision science as we prepare for the EIC era. Focusing on inclusive dijet production in deeply inelastic electron-nucleus, we contribute to these efforts in two ways. First, we quantify the size of kinematic twist and...

Soft theorems play a fundamental role in the development of quantum field theory. In scattering processes the production of soft photons diverges in the infrared in a controlled manner. Low's theorem relates the production cross section of a process with and without additional soft photon emission by a simple formula without dependence on the details of the process. However, this simple and...

The strong electromagnetic field generated by the colliding nuclei in heavy-ion collisions can be represented by a spectrum of equivalent photons, leading to photon-induced interactions.

Model emulation is an important tool for tackling many nuclear physics problems, including an estimation of model parameters.

The measurement of heavy-flavour (charm and beauty) production in proton-proton (pp) collisions at the LHC provides a crucial information about quantum chromodynamics (QCD) in high-energy regime.
