Contribution List

1. A novel approach to jet quenching measurements at RHIC and LHC

Peter Jacobs (Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory)

Session I

The interaction of QCD jets with hot and dense colored matter ("jet quenching") has provided unique experimental probes of the Quark Gluon Plasma, at both RHIC and LHC. However, the full power of jet quenching has yet to be harnessed, because of the difficulty to reconstruct complete jets in the complex environment of high energy nuclear collisions. In this talk I will present a novel...

2. Measurement of jet production in central Pb-Pb collisions using semi-inclusive hadron-jet distributions

3. Energy conservation in high-pT reactions

Sassion II

The limitations related to energy conservation affect the space-time development of jets in vacuum and inside a medium, enhance jet/hadron attenuation. The rate of energy dissipation strongly affect hadronization of heavy flavors.

4. Prospects for heavy ions at HL-LHC and FCC

Andrea Dainese (PD)

Session III

In the first part of the presentation I will review the long-term plans for the heavy-ion programme in the High-Luminosity phase of the LHC. The emphasis will be on the projected performance of the ALICE and CMS experiments for the measurement of rare probes of the Quark-Gluon Plasma. In the second part, I will introduce the Future Circular Collider study, which has as main goal a new hadron...

5. Polarized Hyperons and Heavy Quarks Production at the LHC

Dr simonetta liuti (University of Virginia)

Session III

Longstanding questions in spin physics can be explored at the LHC. This talk singles out two of these polarization phenomena, namely the occurrence of large hyperons polarization and top quarks spin correlations. The measurement of hyperon polarization at LHC energies will provide a unique insight into the mechanisms underlying single spin asymmetries in QCD, whereas top anti-top spin...
