In heavy-ion collisions, nuclear matter is subjected to extreme conditions in a highly dynamical, rapidly evolving environment. This poses a tremendous challenge for calculating jet quenching observables. Current approaches rely on…

Nuclear modifications to collinear parton distribution functions are conventionally quantified by the ratios $ r^{\textrm{A}}_i(x,Q^2) = f^\textrm{A,proton}_i(x,Q^2) / f^\textrm{proton}_i(x,Q^2) $. For a given nucleus $A$, these ratios…

Jets produced in relativistic heavy-ion collisions are modified by their interactions with the quark-gluon plasma (QGP), making jet substructure observables sensitive probes of QGP dynamics. A quantitative description of these modifications…
