The study of jets and jet fragmentation plays a large role in understanding parton evolution within the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP). In QCD emissions from jets, photons can fragment from quarks, but these fragmentation photons have not been thoroughly investigated in the context of Heavy-ion Collisions. They could offer insight for investigating jet energy loss mechanisms in the QGP medium. This...
Energy-Energy Correlator (EEC) applications to Heavy-Ion Collisions have been the subject of copious studies in recent years, namely in the exploration of the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP). EECs have been originally proposed to display a clear-cut scale factorization between different QCD processes, such as perturbative and non-perturbative effects, making them particularly appealing for...
The energy-energy correlator (EEC) inside jets is a sensitive observable for studying jet modification in the quark-gluon plasma (QGP). we employ an updated CoLBT-hydro framework in which a medium scale QM = 2.0 GeV is introduced to separate the vacuum and in-medium stages of the parton shower, enabling a more self-consistent treatment of jet evolution. Using a theoretical background...
