Finite Formation Time Antenna Radiation: Color Spectators Break Single-Emitter BDMPS-Z

Fabio Domínguez, Pablo Guerrero-Rodríguez, Carlos A. Salgado

We compute the direct contribution to the squared matrix element for the in-medium soft gluon emission off a color-singlet quark-antiquark pair. To do this, we incorporate medium i…

Azimuthal momentum isotropization in the Quark-Gluon Plasma thermalization

Sergio Barrera Cabodevila, Xiaojian Du, Carlos A. Salgado +1

Azimuthal anisotropies coming from the initial state of a heavy-ion collision have been historically disregarded in the study of thermalization because they are expected to be rapi…

Quantum simulating multi-particle processes in high energy nuclear physics: dijet production and color (de)coherence

João Barata, Meijian Li, Wenyang Qian +2

Hard scattering events in high-energy collisions produce highly virtual partons that subsequently fragment into collimated hadronic cascades. When such partonic showers evolve in a…

Multiplicity distributions in QCD jets and jet topics

Xiang-Pan Duan, Lin Chen, Guo-Liang Ma +2

We evaluate the Koba-Nielsen-Olesen (KNO) scaling functions for quark- and gluon-initiated jets by incorporating energy conservation into the Double Logarithmic Approximation (DLA)…

Scattering and gluon emission of physical quarks in a SU(3) colored field

Meijian Li, Tuomas Lappi, Xingbo Zhao +1

We study the scattering of the gluon-dressed physical quarks, defined as the eigenstates of the vacuum QCD Hamiltonian, off a colored medium. We solve the wavefunction of the physi…

Quark production in the bottom-up thermalization

Sergio Barrera Cabodevila, Xiaojian Du, Carlos A. Salgado +1

We investigate the impact of quark production on bottom-up thermalization in heavy-ion collisions. First, we extend the parametric estimates of bottom-up thermalization in pure glu…

Quark antenna in early stage anisotropic QCD matter

Joao Barata, Carlos A. Salgado, Joao M. Silva

The states of matter produced in the early stage of heavy ion collisions can be highly anisotropic. If such a feature is sufficiently pronounced, one should expect the final partic…

KNO scaling in quark and gluon jets at the LHC

Xiang-Pan Duan, Lin Chen, Guo-Liang Ma +2

The Koba-Nielsen-Olesen (KNO) scaling of hadron multiplicity distributions, empirically confirmed to hold approximately in collisions and Deep Inelastic Scattering, has be…

Efficient Quantum Simulation of QCD Jets on the Light Front

Wenyang Qian, Meijian Li, Carlos A. Salgado +1

Quark and gluon jets provide one of the best ways to probe the matter produced in ultrarelativistic high-energy collisions, from cold nuclear matter to hot quark-gluon plasma. In t…

Gluon to antenna in anisotropic QCD matter: spin-polarized and azimuthal jet observables

João Barata, Carlos A. Salgado, João M. Silva

We study the production of a quark-antiquark antenna in the presence of a dense and anisotropic QCD medium. We assume the antenna to originate from an unpolarized gluon state, and…

Thermalization and quark production in spatially homogeneous systems of gluons

Sergio Barrera Cabodevila, Carlos A. Salgado, Bin Wu

We first assemble a full set of the Boltzmann Equation in Diffusion Approximation (BEDA) for studying thermalization/hydrodynamization and quark production in out of equilibrium sy…

Quark production and thermalization of the quark-gluon plasma

Sergio Barrera Cabodevila, Carlos A. Salgado, Bin Wu

We first assemble a full set of the Boltzmann Equation in Diffusion Approximation (BEDA) for studying thermalization/hydrodynamization as well as the production of massless quarks…

The radiation pattern of a QCD antenna in a dilute medium

Yacine Mehtar-Tani, Carlos A. Salgado, Konrad Tywoniuk

Radiative interferences in the multi-parton shower is the building block of QCD jet physics in vacuum. The presence of a hot medium made of quarks and gluons is expected to alter t…
