Heavy-flavor production and medium properties in high-energy nuclear collisions - What next?
G. Aarts, J. Aichelin, C. Allton +46
Open and hidden heavy-flavor physics in high-energy nuclear collisions are entering a new and exciting stage towards reaching a clearer understanding of the new experimental result…
Predictions for the Spatial Distribution of Gluons in the Initial Nuclear State
G. S. Jackson, W. A. Horowitz
We make predictions for the t-differential cross section of exclusive vector meson production (EVMP) in electron-ion collisions, with the aim of comparing DGLAP evolution to CGC mo…
Heavy Quark Production and Energy Loss
W. A. Horowitz
Heavy flavor research is a vigorous and active topic in high-energy QCD physics. Comparing theoretical predictions to data as a function of flavor provides a unique opportunity to…
Weakness or Strength in the Golden Years of RHIC and LHC?
W. A. Horowitz
Recent LHC data suggest that perturbative QCD provides a qualitatively consistent picture of jet quenching. Constrained to RHIC pi0 suppression, zero parameter WHDG energy loss pre…
Gluons and the quark sea at high energies: distributions, polarization, tomography
D. Boer, M. Diehl, R. Milner +186
This report is based on a ten-week program on "Gluons and the quark sea at high-energies", which took place at the Institute for Nuclear Theory in Seattle in Fall 2010. The princip…
0th Order Heavy Quark Photon Bremsstrahlung
W. A. Horowitz
We calculate the 0th order in opacity number distribution of massive photons (gluons) for heavy quark production radiation including interference from the away-side jet. While cons…
pQCD vs. AdS/CFT Tested by Heavy Quark Energy Loss
W. A. Horowitz
We predict the charm and bottom quark nuclear modification factors using weakly coupled pQCD and strongly coupled AdS/CFT drag methods. The log(pT/M_Q)/pT dependence of pQCD loss a…
Testing AdS/CFT Deviations from pQCD Heavy Quark Energy Loss with Pb+Pb at LHC
W. A. Horowitz, M. Gyulassy
Heavy quark jet quenching in nuclear collisions at LHC is predicted and compared using the classical gravity AdS/CFT correspondence and Standard Model perturbative QCD. The momentu…
LHC Predictions from an extended theory with Elastic, Inelastic, and Path Length Fluctuating Energy Loss
William A. Horowitz
We present the LHC predictions for the WHDG model of radiative, elastic, and path length fluctuating energy loss. We find the pT dependence of RAA is qualitatively very different f…
Overcoming Fragility
William Horowitz
We examine the sensitivity and surface bias of convolved DGLV radiative and elastic loss in a realistic geometry including Bjorken expansion. We find that this more faithful treatm…
Collisional Energy Loss of Non Asymptotic Jets in a QGP
A. Adil, M. Gyulassy, W. A. Horowitz +1
We calculate the collisional energy loss suffered by a heavy (charm) quark created at a finite time within a Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP) in the classical linear response formalism as…
Elastic, Inelastic, and Path Length Fluctuations in Jet Tomography
Simon Wicks, William Horowitz, Magdalena Djordjevic +1
We propose a possible perturbative QCD solution to the heavy quark tomography problem posed by recent non-photonic single electron data from central Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s} =…
Large Observed as a Signature for Deconfinement
W. A. Horowitz
We present a new plot for representing RAA data that emphasizes the strong correlation between high-pt suppression and its elliptic anisotropy. We demonstrate that existing models…
