Higher-order transverse momentum fluctuations in heavy-ion collisions

Somadutta Bhatta, Chunjian Zhang, Jiangyong Jia

In relativistic heavy-ion collisions, the event-by-event mean transverse momentum fluctuations are sensitive to overlap area and energy density fluctuations in initial state. We pr…

Constraining the nucleon size with relativistic nuclear collisions

Giuliano Giacalone, Björn Schenke, Chun Shen

The notion of the "size" of nucleons and their constituents plays a pivotal role in the current paradigm of the formation and the fluctuations of the quark-gluon plasma produced in…

Scaling approach to nuclear structure in high-energy heavy-ion collisions

Jiangyong Jia, Chun-Jian Zhang

In high-energy heavy-ion collisions, the initial condition of the produced quark-gluon plasma (QGP) and its evolution are sensitive to collective nuclear structure parameters descr…

Elastic proton scattering off non-zero spin nuclei

Matteo Vorabbi, Michael Gennari, Paolo Finelli +3

In recent years, we constructed a microscopic optical potential (OP) for elastic nucleon-nucleus () scattering using modern approaches based on chiral theories for the nucleon-…

Evidence of quadrupole and octupole deformations in Zr+Zr and Ru+Ru collisions at ultra-relativistic energies

Chunjian Zhang, Jiangyong Jia

In the hydrodynamic model description of heavy ion collisions, the elliptic flow and triangular flow are sensitive to the quadrupole deformation and octupole defo…

Probing triaxial deformation of atomic nuclei in high-energy heavy ion collisions

Jiangyong Jia

Most atomic nuclei are deformed with a quadrupole shape described by its overall strength and triaxiality . The deformation can be accessed in high-energy heavy-ion collis…
