A data-driven analysis for the temperature and momentum dependence of the heavy quark diffusion coefficient in relativistic heavy-ion collisions

Yingru Xu, Marlene Nahrgang, Shanshan Cao +2

By applying a Bayesian model-to-data analysis, we estimate the temperature and momentum dependence of the heavy quark diffusion coefficient in an improved Langevin framework. The p…

Investigating the collision energy dependence of /s in RHIC beam energy scan using Bayesian statistics

Jussi Auvinen, Iurii Karpenko, Jonah E. Bernhard +1

We determine the probability distributions of shear viscosity over the entropy density ratio in Au+Au collisions at , and GeV, using Bayesian i…

Multistage Monte-Carlo simulation of jet modification in a static medium

JETSCAPE Collaboration, Shanshan Cao, Chanwook Park +31

The modification of hard jets in an extended static medium held at a fixed temperature is studied using three different Monte-Carlo event generators (LBT, MATTER, MARTINI). Each ev…

Flow in small and large quark-gluon plasma droplets: the role of nucleon substructure

J. Scott Moreland, Jonah E. Bernhard, Weiyao Ke +1

We study the effects of nucleon substructure on bulk observables in proton-lead collisions at the LHC using Bayesian methodology. Substructure is added to the TRENTO parametric ini…

A data-driven analysis of the heavy quark transport coefficient

Yingru Xu, Marlene Nahrgang, Jonah E. Bernhard +2

Using a Bayesian model-to-data analysis, we estimate the temperature dependence of the heavy quark diffusion coefficients by calibrating to the experimental data of -meson $R_{\…

Determination of Quark-Gluon-Plasma Parameters from a Global Bayesian Analysis

Steffen A. Bass, Jonah E. Bernhard, J. Scott Moreland

The quality of data taken at RHIC and LHC as well as the success and sophistication of computational models for the description of ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions have adva…
