Going against the flow: Revealing the QCD degrees of freedom in hadronic collisions

Christian Bierlich, Peter Christiansen, Gösta Gustafson +3

In collisions between heavy nuclei, such as those at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, hydrodynamic models have successfully related measured azimuthal momentum anisotropies…

The dynamic hadronization of charm quarks in heavy-ion collisions

Christian Bierlich, Gösta Gustafson, Leif Lönnblad +1

The PYTHIA8/ANGANTYR model for heavy ion collisions was recently updated with a mechanism for \textit{global colour reconnection}. The colour reconnection model used is QCD colour…

Collider Events on a Quantum Computer

Gösta Gustafson, Stefan Prestel, Michael Spannowsky +1

High-quality simulated data is crucial for particle physics discoveries. Therefore, parton shower algorithms are a major building block of the data synthesis in event generator pro…

Strangeness enhancement across collision systems without a plasma

Christian Bierlich, Smita Chakraborty, Gösta Gustafson +1

We present novel rope hadronization results for strange hadron enhancement in pp, pPb, and PbPb collisions using PYTHIA/Angantyr at LHC energies. With the rope model for string fra…

Jet modifications from colour rope formation in dense systems of non-parallel strings

Christian Bierlich, Smita Chakraborty, Gösta Gustafson +1

We revisit our rope model for string fragmentation that has been shown to give a reasonable description of strangeness and baryon enhancement in high-multiplicity pp events at the…

Hyperfine splitting effects in string hadronization

Christian Bierlich, Smita Chakraborty, Gösta Gustafson +1

We revisit the recipe for hadron formation in the Lund string hadronization model. Given an incoming quark or quark-diquark pair, weights for hadron formation are updated to take h…
