Recent measurements of particle correlations and the spectra of hadrons at both RHIC and the LHC are suggestive of hydrodynamic behavior in very small collision systems (p+Pb, d+Au and p+p collisions). The measurements are both…

The universal dependence of hadron suppression, $R_{\rm{AA}}(p_\perp)$, observed at large-$p_\perp$ in heavy ion collisions at RHIC and LHC allows for a systematic determination of the average parton energy loss $\langle \epsilon \rangle$…
Two-particle correlations in relative rapidity and azimuth are studied for the p-Pb collisions at the LHC energy of 5.02 TeV in the framework of event-by-event 3+1-dimensional viscous hydrodynamics. It is found that for the…
We investigate the transverse dynamics in Au+Au collisions at \sqrt{s_NN}=200 GeV by emphasis upon the interplay between soft and hard components through p_T dependences of particle spectra, ratios of yields, suppression factors, and…
We apply a quark combination model with equal-velocity combination (EVC) approximation to study the elliptic flow ($v_{2}$) of hadrons in heavy-ion collisions in a wide collision energy range ($\sqrt{s_{NN}}=$ 27 - 5020 GeV). Utilizing the…
In these proceedings, the elliptic flow ($v_{2}$) measurement of prompt and non-prompt charm hadrons - originating respectively from the fragmentation of a charm quark and from the decay of hadrons with beauty-quark content - in Pb-Pb…

It is argued that the use of the initial Gaussian energy density profile for hydrodynamics leads to much better uniform description of the RHIC heavy-ion data than the use of the standard initial condition obtained from the Glauber model.…
