Description
co-host: Phiala Shanahan
A beautiful description of nature’s fundamental forces has been devised through gauge fields introducing local symmetries or conserved charges. Though classical techniques continue to provide invaluable information on the emergent properties of gauge field theories relevant to experimental programs throughout the scientific domains, some experimentally relevant parameter regimes e.g., where...
The theoretical description of jet substructure observables involves the study of their radiation pattern in all corners of phase space. In this talk, I will
focus on the properties of the hardest splitting in a QCD jet, as defined by the Dynamical Grooming method, both in vacuum and in heavy-ion collisions. After presenting some interesting properties from the resummation point of view, I...
It is customary to distinguish two main regimes of perturbative QCD processes: the Bjorken (moderate x) limit and the Regge (small x) limit. The main difficulty when addressing the continuity between these two regimes was solved recently. Indeed it was proven that semi-classical descriptions of observables in the saturated or unsaturated Regge limit, such as the Color Glass Condensate, can be...
Since the discovery of the European Muon Collaboration (EMC) effect, where it was observed that the quark longitudinal momentum distributions in a nucleus are different from those of free nucleons, there has been a long standing question in nuclear physics as to how the structure of a free nucleon might change when bound in a nucleus or embedded in a nuclear medium. One of the cleanest...
