Parton cascade models have been surprisingly successful in describing heavy-ion reactions at RHIC energies -- surprising because in spite of their QCD bells and whistles, they essentially embody classical many-particle dynamics. The…
Double parton scattering events are directly sensitive to the correlations between two partons inside a proton and can answer fundamental questions on the connections between the proton constituents. In this chapter, the different types of…
