In ultra high-energy collisions, nuclei with very low binding energies are not expected to survive the dense and hot final state environment. The traditional view has therefore been that nuclei form via coalescence after the hot environment…
A two-component (soft + hard) model (TCM) of hadron production in high-energy nuclear collisions is applied to ensemble-mean $p_t$ (denoted by $\bar p_t$) data for $p$-$p$, $p$-Pb and Pb-Pb collisions from the relativistic heavy ion…

The different QCD processes, which can produce a heavy quark-antiquark ($Q\bar Q$) pair, induce different correlations between the heavy quarks. Employing the EPOS4HQ event generator we study the consequences of these correlations and…
