Revisiting the role of saturation in diffractive vector meson production
Heikki Mäntysaari, Heikki Mäntysaari, Hendrik Roch +4
We perform a global Bayesian analysis of coherent and incoherent diffractive photoproduction in and collisions using a Color Glass Condensate (…
Nuclear structure and saturation effects from diffractive vector meson production
Heikki Mäntysaari, Heikki Mäntysaari, Hendrik Roch +4
We study exclusive vector meson production in ultraperipheral collisions (UPCs) of a wide range of nuclei, and assess the potential of measurements to constrain the small- struc…
Impact of QCD Energy Evolution on Observables in Heavy-Ion Collisions
Heikki Mäntysaari, Björn Schenke, Chun Shen +1
We study how the inclusion of energy dependence as dictated by quantum chromodynamic (QCD) small- evolution equations affects key observables in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion col…
Charm quark evolution in the early stages of heavy-ion collisions
Mayank Singh, Manu Kurian, Björn Schenke +2
Heavy quarks are predominantly generated at the initial stage of relativistic heavy-ion collisions such that heavy flavor observables have the potential to provide information on t…
Global Bayesian Analysis of Photoproduction on Proton and Lead Targets
Heikki Mäntysaari, Hendrik Roch, Farid Salazar +3
We perform a global Bayesian analysis of diffractive production in and collisions using a color glass condensate (CGC) based calculation fra…
Signatures of QCD conductivities in heavy-ion collisions
Akihiko Monnai, Grégoire Pihan, Björn Schenke +1
Dissipative processes are pivotal for understanding the hydrodynamic evolution of hot and dense QCD matter created in relativistic nuclear collisions. The interplay of multiple con…
