Thermalization and isotropization in heavy-ion collisions

Michael Strickland

I review our current understanding of the processes driving the thermalization and isotropization of the quark gluon plasma (QGP) created in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions…

Charmonia and Bottomonia in a Magnetic Field

Jeremy Alford, Michael Strickland

We study the effect of a static homogeneous external magnetic field on charmonium and bottomonium states. In an external magnetic field, quarkonium states do not have a conserved c…

Three-loop HTLpt Pressure and Susceptibilities at Finite Temperature and Density

Najmul Haque, Jens O. Andersen, Munshi G. Mustafa +2

We present results of a three-loop hard-thermal-loop perturbation theory calculation of the thermodynamical potential of a finite temperature and baryon chemical potential system o…

Equation of State of hot and dense QCD: Resummed perturbation theory confronts lattice data

Sylvain Mogliacci, Jens O. Andersen, Michael Strickland +2

We perform a detailed analysis of the predictions of resummed perturbation theory for the pressure and the second-, fourth-, and sixth-order diagonal quark number susceptibilities…

Heavy quarkonium production in a strong magnetic field

C. S. Machado, F. S. Navarra, E. G. de Oliveira +2

It is well known that in noncentral heavy-ion collisions a transient strong magnetic field is generated in the direction perpendicular to the reaction plane. The maximal strength o…

Multichannel parametrization of scattering amplitudes and extraction of resonance parameters

H. Zhang, J. Tulpan, M. Shrestha +1

We present results of a new multichannel partial-wave analysis for scattering in the c.m.\ energy range 1480 to 2100 MeV. Resonance parameters were extracted by fitting…
