In heavy-ion collisions, the quark-gluon plasma is expected to be produced, which is an almost perfect liquid that made up the Universe a few microseconds after the Big Bang. In these collisions, jets are also formed from hadronizing…
A search for long-lived particles decaying to displaced, nonprompt jets and missing transverse momentum is presented. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 137 fb$^{-1}$ of proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass…
The color dipole formulation provides an intuitive picture of hard processes in high energy scattering. Most importantly, this approach allows one to calculate nuclear effects in a parameter-free way. I review the relation between the…
High-energy nuclear collisions create a quark-gluon plasma, whose initial condition and subsequent expansion vary from event to event, impacting the distribution of the event-wise average transverse momentum ($P([p_{\mathrm{T}}])$).…
Studying experimental observables is a key benchmark for validating theoretical models in high energy physics. In this work, we employ the PACIAE 4.0 model to simulate non-single diffractive proton-proton ($pp$) collisions at center-of-mass…
Transverse momentum ($p_T$) and rapidity ($y$) spectra of $Z$ bosons and quarkonium states (some charmonium $c\bar c$ mesons such as $J/\psi$ and $\psi(2S)$, and some bottomonium $b\bar b$ mesons such as $\Upsilon(1S)$, $\Upsilon(2S)$, and…
The creation of particles with large transverse momenta in high energy hadronic collisions is a long standing problem. The transition from small- (soft) to hard- parton scattering `high-pt' events is rather smooth. In this paper we apply…

Weak scale supersymmetry is one of the best motivated and studied Standard Model extensions. It predicts the existence of new heavy coloured particles called squarks and gluinos which are the supersymmetric partners of the quarks and…

A search is presented for gluinos decaying via the supersymmetric partner of the top quark using events with two same-sign leptons, jets and missing transverse momentum. The analysis is performed with 2.05 fb^-1 of integrated luminosity…
We apply continuum percolation to proton-proton collisions and look for the possible threshold to phase transition from confined nuclear matter to quark gluon plasma. Making the assumption that J/Psi suppression is a good signal to the…
