Heavy Flavors and Quarkonia at RHIC
Cameron Dean, Xin Dong, Rongrong Ma +1
After the discovery of the strongly coupled quark-gluon plasma (QGP), a nearly perfect fluid, in 200 GeV Au+Au collisions at RHIC, understanding its microscopic structure and trans…
Synergies between a U.S.-based Electron-Ion Collider and European Research in Particle Physics
Stefan Diehl, Raphaël Dupré, Olga Evdokimov +10
This document is submitted as input to the European Strategy for Particle Physics Update (ESPPU). The U.S.-based Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) aims at understanding how the complex d…
Projective Imaging of High-Energy Nuclei via Coherent Exclusive Vector Meson Production in Electron-Nucleus Collisions
Maci Kesler, Ashik Ikbal Sheikh, Rongrong Ma +3
One of the major goals of modern nuclear experiments is to study the distributions of gluons inside nuclei at high energy. A key measurement is the coherent exclusive vector meson…
Beam energy dependence of net-hyperon yield and its implication on baryon transport mechanism
Chun Yuen Tsang, Rongrong Ma, Prithwish Tribedy +1
In the constituent quark model, each quark inside a baryon carries 1/3 unit of the baryon number. An alternative picture exists where the center of a Y-shaped topology of gluon fie…
