Jet fragmentation functions in proton-proton collisions using soft-collinear effective theory
Yang-Ting Chien, Zhong-Bo Kang, Felix Ringer +2
The jet fragmentation function describes the longitudinal momentum distribution of hadrons inside a reconstructed jet. We study the jet fragmentation function in proton-proton coll…
A Study of Quasi-parton Distribution Functions in the Diquark Spectator Model
Leonard Gamberg, Zhong-Bo Kang, Ivan Vitev +1
To facilitate lattice QCD calculations of nucleon structute, a set of quasi-parton distributions were recently introduced. These quasi-PDFs were shown to reduce to standard PDFs wh…
Spin asymmetries for vector boson production in polarized p+p collisions
Jin Huang, Zhong-Bo Kang, Ivan Vitev +1
We study the cross section for vector boson () production in polarized nucleon-nucleon collisions for low transverse momentum of the observed vector boson. For the…
Quenching of inclusive and tagged b-jets at the LHC
Hongxi Xing, Jinrui Huang, Zhong-Bo Kang +1
We present theoretical predictions for the nuclear-induced attenuation of the differential cross sections for inclusive and tagged b-jet production in heavy ion collisions at the L…
Jet Quenching from QCD Evolution
Yang-Ting Chien, Alexander Emerman, Zhong-Bo Kang +2
Recent advances in soft-collinear effective theory with Glauber gluons have led to the development of a new method that gives a unified description of inclusive hadron production i…
Initial-state cold nuclear matter energy loss effects on inclusive jet production in p+A collisions at RHIC and LHC
Zhong-Bo Kang, Ivan Vitev, Hongxi Xing
Recent measurements of the centrality and rapidity dependence of single inclusive jet production in p+Pb collisions at the LHC have revealed large and non-trivial nuclear modificat…
