In this contribution I discuss some recent progress in understanding the evolution of the pre-thermal quark-gluon matter, known as the glasma, during the early stage in heavy ion collisions, and the implication for early time photon and…
The early stage of a heavy ion collision is governed by local non-equilibrium momentum distributions which have been approximated by colliding nuclear matter configurations, i.e. by two Lorentz elongated Fermi ellipsoids. This approach has…
Galaxy formation in the current cosmological paradigm is a very complex process in which inflows, outflows, interactions and mergers are common events. These processes can redistribute the angular momentum content of baryons. Recent…
The transverse momenta of hadrons in central nucleus-nucleus collisions are evaluated in a boost invariant hydrodynamics with transverse expansion. Quark gluon plasma is assumed to be formed in the initial state which expands and cools via…

Correlation measurements imply that anisotropic flow in nuclear collisions includes a novel triangular component along with the more familiar elliptic-flow contribution. Triangular flow has been attributed to event-wise fluctuations in the…
(Abridged) We investigate how the shapes and angular momenta of galaxy and group mass dark matter halos in a LCDM N-body simulation are correlated internally, and how they are aligned with respect to the location and properties of…
