Heavy Flavor in Medium Momentum Evolution: Langevin vs Boltzmann
Santosh K. Das, Francesco Scardina, Salvatore Plumari +1
The propagation of heavy quarks in the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) has been often treated within the framework of the Langevin equation (LV), i.e. assuming the momentum transfer is sm…
Thermalization, Isotropization and Elliptic Flow from Nonequilibrium Initial Conditions with a Saturation Scale
Marco Ruggieri, Francesco Scardina, Salvatore Plumari +1
In this article we report on our results about the computation of the elliptic flow of the quark-gluon-plasma produced in relativistic heavy ion collisions, simulating the expansio…
Performance of the TOTEM Detectors at the LHC
TOTEM Collaboration, G. Antchev, P. Aspell +79
The TOTEM Experiment is designed to measure the total proton-proton cross-section with the luminosity-independent method and to study elastic and diffractive pp scattering at the L…
Heavy Flavor Suppression: Boltzmann vs Langevin
Santosh K. Das, Francesco Scardina, Salvatore Plumari +1
The propagation of heavy flavor through the quark gluon plasma has been treated commonly within the framework of Langevin dynamics, i.e. assuming the heavy flavor momentum transfer…
Thermodynamics of the Quark-Gluon Plasma in Terms of Quasiparticles and Polyakov Line Condensates
Lucia Oliva, Paolo Castorina, Vincenzo Greco +1
We study a model of quark-gluon plasma of 2+1 flavors Quantum Chromodynamics in terms of quasiparticles propagating in a condensate of Polyakov loops. The Polyakov loop is coupled…
Double diffractive cross-section measurement in the forward region at LHC
TOTEM Collaboration, G. Antchev, P. Aspell +73
The first double diffractive cross-section measurement in the very forward region has been carried out by the TOTEM experiment at the LHC with center-of-mass energy of sqrt(s)=7 Te…
