The quark-gluon plasma (QGP) is an exotic phase of matter, composed of deconfined quarks and gluons and is briefly created in heavy-ion collisions (HIC) at the LHC and at the RHIC. High-energy, self-collimated structures of final-state…

The aim of this study is to investigate the possibility of the Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP) formation in proton-proton (p-p) collisions. The p-p collisions at center of mass energies $\sqrt{s_{_{NN}}} = 200$ $GeV$ and $\sqrt{s_{_{NN}}} = 13$…
