Light-front Hamiltonian jet evolution in the Glasma

Dana Avramescu, Carlos Lamas, Tuomas Lappi +2

We develop a light-front Hamiltonian formalism to study the real-time quantum evolution of a high-energy quark propagating through the Glasma phase of a heavy-ion collision. In thi…

Kinetic and canonical momentum broadening in the Glasma

Dana Avramescu, Carlos Lamas, Tuomas Lappi +2

We lay the foundations for a quantum formalism describing the real-time evolution of particles in the Glasma phase of a heavy-ion collision, focusing on the implications of gauge i…

The leading Lyapunov exponent in the glasma

Pooja, Dana Avramescu, Tuomas Lappi

We show that small perturbations in the boost-invariant color fields of the glasma exhibit an exponential growth with the square root of time. We interpret this growth rate as a Ly…

Heavy flavor angular correlations as probes of the glasma

Dana Avramescu, Vincenzo Greco, Tuomas Lappi +2

We study the effect of the glasma fields, formed in the early stage of heavy-ion collisions, on the transport of pairs produced back-to-back. We find that for pairs with…

Initial stage jet momentum broadening in tBLFQ formalism

Dana Avramescu, Carlos Lamas, Tuomas Lappi +2

We study the momentum broadening of a high-energy quark jet in the large density gluon medium created right after the collision of two ultrarelativistic heavy nuclei, the Glasma. P…

The impact of glasma on heavy quark spectra and correlations

Dana Avramescu, Vincenzo Greco, Tuomas Lappi +2

We investigate the effect of the glasma classical color fields, produced in the very early stage of heavy-ion collisions, on the transport of heavy quarks. The glasma fields evolve…

Heavy flavor angular correlations as a direct probe of the glasma

Dana Avramescu, Vincenzo Greco, Tuomas Lappi +2

We use classical equations of motion for heavy quarks to show that the pre-equilibrium glasma phase of a heavy ion collision has an extremely strong effect on heavy quark angular c…

The impact of glasma on heavy flavor azimuthal correlations and spectra

Dana Avramescu, Vincenzo Greco, Tuomas Lappi +2

We study the phenomenological impact of the pre-equilibrium glasma initial stage of heavy-ion collisions on heavy quark azimuthal correlations and spectra. Using our numerical solv…

Heavy quark and jet transport coefficients in the Glasma early stage of heavy-ion collisions

Dana Avramescu, Virgil Băran, Vincenzo Greco +3

We study the impact of the Glasma fields, used to describe the very early stage of heavy-ion collisions, on the transport of hard probes, namely heavy quarks and jets. We perform n…

Simulating jets and heavy quarks in the Glasma using the colored particle-in-cell method

Dana Avramescu, Virgil Băran, Vincenzo Greco +3

We explore the impact of strong classical color fields, which occur in the earliest stages of heavy-ion collisions and are known as the Glasma, on the classical transport of hard p…
