1. New Insights into QCD Dynamics in p+Au Collisions from the Multiplicity Dependence of Charmonium Production at \sqrt{s}=200 GeV with PHENIX

Dr Ming Liu (Los Alamos)

We will present new PHENIX measurements of charmonium production in
p+Au collisions at \sqrt{s}=200 GeV and discuss their implications for
QCD dynamics in small collision systems. These results probe the
possible roles of multi-parton interactions, long-range partonic correlations, and novel final-state effects in asymmetric p+Au
collisions at RHIC energies, while carefully accounting for...

2. Partonic effects on the charm azimuthal correlations in relativistic p + p collisions

Measurements of heavy flavor quark correlations in heavy-ion collisions are crucial to understand the flavor dependence of quark energy loss mechanisms in hot and dense QCD matter. In addition to the heavy-ion collisions, experimental measurements of heavy flavor correlations in $p+p$ collisions can provide insights into the contributions of perturbative and non-perturbative QCD processes to...

9. Target Fragmentation and Fracture Function Observables at the Electron-Ion Collider

Target fragmentation provides a unique window into the correlation between the struck parton and the remnant system in semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering. While current and past studies of nucleon structure have largely focused on current fragmentation observables, the Electron-Ion Collider will enable precision measurements in the target-fragmentation region through its high luminosity,...

18. Oxygen–Oxygen Collisions: A New Window on the System-Size Evolution of QCD Matter at RHIC and the LHC

Uttam Acharya (Vanderbilt University)

Oxygen–Oxygen collisions have recently opened a new avenue for studying the system-size dependence of QCD matter in relativistic nuclear collisions. Positioned between small systems such as pp and pA and large heavy-ion systems such as AuAu and PbPb, OO collisions provide a unique opportunity to investigate how collective phenomena and medium effects evolve with the size and density of the...
