Anisotropic flow of kaons and antikaons is studied in heavy-ion collisions at CERN SPS and BNL RHIC energies within the microscopic quark-gluon string model. In the midrapidity range the directed flow of kaons v_1 differs considerably from…
Jets are generated in hard interactions in high-energy nuclear collisions. Jets propagate through the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) as the jet shower evolves; their interaction with the QGP, known as jet quenching, generates observable phenomena…
Jet quenching has been one of the most important indicators that ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions produce a deconfined state of quarks and gluons, known as the Quark-Gluon Plasma. While the quenching of jets traditionally refers to…
