Imprints of octupole collectivity in uranium-238 on relativistic heavy-ion flow observables
Chunjian Zhang, Jiangyong Jia, Jinhui Chen +2
Some atomic nuclei exhibit enhanced octupole collectivity, reflected in finite reflection-asymmetric multipole correlations rather than necessarily in a rigid static pear-shaped gr…
Correlations of Feed-down Hadrons in a Thermal Model
Claude Pruneau, Victor Gonzalez, Oveis Sheibani +4
We examine the potential impact of strong decays on the magnitude of fluctuations of net quantum numbers and integrals of balance functions based on a thermal hadron gas model. The…
New constraints on equation of state of hot QCD matter
Lu-Meng Liu, Jinhui Chen, Xu-Guang Huang +3
The longitudinal structure of the quark-gluon plasma(QGP) remains a key challenge in heavy-ion physics. In this Letter, we propose a novel observable, event-by-event mean transvers…
Bayesian model-data comparison incorporating theoretical uncertainties
Sunil Jaiswal, Chun Shen, Richard J. Furnstahl +2
Accurate comparisons between theoretical models and experimental data are critical for scientific progress. However, inferred physical model parameters can vary significantly with…
Nuclear Physics Confronts Relativistic Collisions Of Isobars
Giuliano Giacalone, Jiangyong Jia, Vittorio Somà +43
High-energy collisions involving the isobars Zr and Ru have been performed in 2018 at Brookhaven National Laboratory's Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) a…
