Quarkonia are a very interesting probe for the study of thequark gluon plasma (QGP), created in ultrarelativisitc heavy-ion collisions. They can elucidate several features of the QGP, which are not accessible to other probes. These include the energy loss of color neutral states and open heavy flavour partons in the QGP, the possible recombination of heavy quarks during the expansion of the...
Hadronic resonances have been used as a useful tool for studying the hadron gas phase produced in the late stages of high-energy nuclear collisions. The resonance yields are affected by the hadronic interactions happening during the hadron-gas phase, thus measuring resonance production is useful to constrain the hadron-hadron interactions. The ALICE experiment is suitable for measuring...
One of the present challenges for the theoretical understanding of heavy-quark hadronization is
represented by the description of the measurements of heavy baryon production in AA, pA and pp collisions.
The coalescence hadronization approaches have predicted an unexpected large Λc/D0 ratio is of O(1) in AA collisions,
that has been first observed at RHIC energies and recently in pp, pA...
We describe the propagation of heavy quarks (HQs), namely charm and bottom, in the quark-gluon plasma by means of a full Boltzmann transport approach including event-by-event initial state fluctuations.
The non-perturbative dynamics of the interaction between plasma particles and HQs have been taken
into account through a Quasi-Particle Model(QPM) while the hadronization process is...
We show that vector and higher spin resonances are a sensitive probe of a fundamental aspect of spin hydrodynamics - the lack of equilibrium between spin and vorticity. This is because the purity structure of the density matrix is measurable via the off-diagonal density matrix elements.
We illustrate this via coalescence models for light mesons and potential models for quarkonium states,...
An important characteristic of the strong interaction that can be explored through heavy-ion collisions is the observation of local parity violation. This phenomenon, which manifests as charge separation along the direction of the magnetic field, is called the Chiral Magnetic Effect (CME). We present results on the centrality dependence of the charge-dependent two- and three-particle...
We present a study of flow and hyperon polarization observables at RHIC BES energies in a MUlti Fluid simulation for Fast IoN collisions (MUFFIN) model. MUFFIN is based on a multi-fluid approach to relativistic heavy-ion collisions, and treats the initial stage of heavy-ion reaction as mutual inter-penetration of baryon-rich fluids. It is implemented from scratch with the use of a versatile...
Angular (ΔηΔφ) correlations of identified particles measured in ultrarelativistic proton-proton and heavy-ion collisions exhibit a number of features which depend on the collision system and particle type under consideration. Those features are produced by various mechanisms, such as (mini)jets, elliptic flow, resonance decays, and conservation laws. In addition, of particular importance are...
