Systems with different interactions could develop the same critical behaviour due to the underlying symmetry and universality. Using this principle of universality, we can embed critical correlations modeled on the 3D Ising model into the…
Hadrons are composite objects made of quarks and gluons, and during a collision one can have several elementary interactions between the constituents. These elementary interactions, using an appropriate theoretical framework, can be related…

Fluctuation and correlation observables are often measured using multi-particle correlation methods and therefore mutually probe the origins of genuine correlations present in multi-particle distribution functions. We investigate the common…
We consider a Euclidean extension of the wedge form of Hamiltonian dynamics, which explicitly accounts for the strong localization of the first interaction in nuclear collisions. A new principle of the analytic continuation via the tetrad…
We confront for the first time the widely-held belief that combined event-by-event information from quark gluon plasma signals can reduce the ambiguity of the individual signals. We illustrate specifically how the measured antiproton yield…
We consider the weakly asymmetric simple exclusion process on a ring, driven out of equilibrium by tilting the dynamics so as to enforce a macroscopic current of particles on a large time interval. In this current-biased dynamics, the tilt…
