Modified Dihadron Fragmentation Functions in Hot and Nuclear Matter

A. Majumder, Enke Wang, Xin-Nian Wang

Medium modification of dihadron fragmentation functions due to gluon bremsstrahlung induced by multiple partonic scattering is studied in both deep-inelastic scattering (DIS) off l…

Jet quenching of massive quarks in a nuclear medium

Ben-Wei Zhang

Utilizing the generalized factorization of twist-4 processes, we derive the modified heavy quark fragmentation function after considering the gluon radiation induced by multiple sc…

Forward Production in d+Au Collisions by Parton Recombination

Rudolph C. Hwa, C. B. Yang, R. J. Fries

Hadron production at forward rapidities in d+Au collisions is studied in the framework of parton recombination in the final state. Multiple scattering and gluon saturation in the i…

Dihadron Correlation in Jets Produced in Heavy-Ion Collisions

Rudolph C. Hwa, C. B. Yang

The difference between the structures of jets produced in heavy-ion and hadronic collisions can best be exhibited in the correlations between particles within those jets. We study…

The dielectric function excited by tensor coupling in nuclear matter

Hui Liu, Jiarong Li

The dielectric function of nuclear matter excited by tensor coupling has been studied in the framework of Finite temperature field theory. The induced current mechanism has b…

Proton Production in d+Au Collisions and the Cronin Effect

Rudolph C. Hwa, C. B. Yang

Proton production in the intermediate p_T region in d+Au collisions is studied in the parton recombination model. The recombination of soft and shower partons is shown to be import…

Fragmentation or Recombination at High p_T?

Rudolph C. Hwa, C. B. Yang

All hadronization processes, including fragmentation, are shown to proceed through recombination. The shower partons in a jet turn out to play an important role in describing the p…

Final-State Interaction as the Origin of the Cronin Effect

R. C. Hwa, C. B. Yang

Instead of adhering to the usual explanation of the Cronin effect in terms of the broadening of the parton transverse momentum in the initial state, we show that the enhancement of…

Novel effects of electromagnetic interaction on the correlation of nucleons in nuclear matter

Ji-sheng Chen, Jia-rong Li, Meng Jin

The electromagnetic(EM) interactions between charged protons on the correlations of nucleons are discussed by introducing the Anderson-Higgs mechanism of broken U(1) EM symmetry in…

Recombination of Shower Partons at High in Heavy-Ion Collisions

Rudolph C. Hwa, C. B. Yang

A formalism for hadron production at high \pt in heavy-ion collisions has been developed such that all partons hadronize by recombination. The fragmentation of a hard parton is acc…
