In this work, we present an overview of experimental considerations relevant to the utilization of jets at a future Electron-Ion Collider (EIC), a subject which has been largely overlooked up to this point. A comparison of jet-finding…
Open heavy flavor and quarkonium are unique probes of the hot-dense medium produced in heavy-ion collisions. Their production in p+p collisions also provide important test of QCD. In this paper, we review the selected results on open heavy…
