Di-hadron correlations in proton-proton collisions at s^1/2 = 200 GeV are interpreted in terms of a fragmentation width and a momentum imbalance. A fragmentation width of 580 +- 50 GeV/c is obtained, and the momentum imbalance gives an…
Excitation functions of the spin correlation coefficients A_{NN}(p_{lab},theta_{c.m.}), A_{SS}(p_{lab},theta_{c.m.}), and A_{SL}(p_{lab},theta_{c.m.}) have been measured with the polarized proton beam of the Cooler Synchrotron COSY and an…

We numerically study the structure of the interactions occurring in three-dimensional systems of hard spheres at jamming, focusing on the large-scale behavior. Given the fundamental role they play in the configuration of jammed packings, we…
We discuss a mechanism for the apparently universal scaling in the high-multiplicity tail of charged particle distributions for high energy nuclear collisions. We argue that this scaling behavior originates from rare fluctuations of the…

We study net-baryon number density fluctuations in isospin-symmetric matter near the nuclear liquid-gas phase transition using the parity doublet model. We analyze second-order susceptibilities of net-proton and net-neutron numbers and…
A surprising feature of flow in slowly sheared model foam (bubble raft) is a measured discontinuity in the rate of strain as a function of position such that part of the system is ``flowing'' and the rest is undergoing ``elastic''…
There is experimental and theoretical evidence that the broad rapidity distribution of net proton yield in central heavy-ion collisions at SPS energies could be a signal of non-equilibrium properties of the system. We show that the broad…
A search for forward proton scattering in association with light-by-light scattering mediated by an axion-like particle is presented, using the ATLAS Forward Proton spectrometer to detect scattered protons and the central ATLAS detector to…
