Illuminating early-stage dynamics of heavy-ion collisions through photons at RHIC BES energies
Chun Shen, Abel Noble, Jean-François Paquet +2
Heavy-ion collisions at GeV probe the QCD phase diagram at large baryon densities. Because the longitudinal Lorentz contraction is small at these col…
Multi-scale Imaging of Nuclear Deformation at the Electron Ion Collider
Heikki Mäntysaari, Björn Schenke, Chun Shen +1
We show within the Color Glass Condensate framework that exclusive vector meson production at high energy is sensitive to the geometric deformation of the target nucleus at multipl…
Evidence of Hexadecapole Deformation in Uranium-238 at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider
Wouter Ryssens, Giuliano Giacalone, Björn Schenke +1
There is strong evidence of the failure of hydrodynamic simulations of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) to reproduce data on the elliptic flow of particles in relativistic collisions o…
Dense Nuclear Matter Equation of State from Heavy-Ion Collisions
Agnieszka Sorensen, Kshitij Agarwal, Kyle W. Brown +133
The nuclear equation of state (EOS) is at the center of numerous theoretical and experimental efforts in nuclear physics. With advances in microscopic theories for nuclear interact…
Long Range Plan: Dense matter theory for heavy-ion collisions and neutron stars
Alessandro Lovato, Travis Dore, Robert D. Pisarski +61
Since the release of the 2015 Long Range Plan in Nuclear Physics, major events have occurred that reshaped our understanding of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and nuclear matter at l…
The 3D structure of anisotropic flow in small collision systems at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider
Wenbin Zhao, Sangwook Ryu, Chun Shen +1
We present (3+1)D dynamical simulations of asymmetric nuclear collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). Employing a dynamical initial state model coupled to (3+1)D…
