gamma-hadron correlations as a tool to trace the flow of energy lost from hard partons in heavy-ion collisions
Thorsten Renk
High transverse momentum (P_T) gamma-hadron correlations are currently being regarded as the 'golden channel' for the study of the medium produced in ultrarelativistic heavy ion co…
EPS09 - a New Generation of NLO and LO Nuclear Parton Distribution Functions
K. J. Eskola, H. Paukkunen, C. A. Salgado
We present a next-to-leading order (NLO) global DGLAP analysis of nuclear parton distribution functions (nPDFs) and their uncertainties. Carrying out an NLO nPDF analysis for the f…
Oscillations of Dirac and Majorana neutrinos in matter and a magnetic field
Maxim Dvornikov, Jukka Maalampi
We study the evolution of massive mixed Dirac and Majorana neutrinos in matter under the influence of a transversal magnetic field. The analysis is based on relativistic quantum me…
Quantum kinetic theory for fermions in temporally varying backrounds
Matti Herranen, Kimmo Kainulainen, Pyry Matti Rahkila
We derive quantum kinetic equations for fermions in a homogeneous time-dependent background in presence of decohering collisions, by use of the Schwinger-Keldysh CTP-formalism. The…
Towards a kinetic theory for fermions with quantum coherence
Matti Herranen, Kimmo Kainulainen, Pyry Matti Rahkila
A new density matrix and corresponding quantum kinetic equations are introduced for fermions undergoing coherent evolution either in time (coherent particle production) or in space…
Elliptic flow in nuclear collisions at the Large Hadron Collider
H. Niemi, K. J. Eskola, P. V. Ruuskanen
We use perfect-fluid hydrodynamical model to predict the elliptic flow coefficients in Pb + Pb collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The initial state for the hydrodynamic…
