Recent data on the high-pT pion nuclear modification factor, $R_{AA}(p_T)$, and its elliptic azimuthal asymmetry, $v_2(p_T)$, from RHIC/BNL and LHC/CERN are analyzed in terms of a wide class of jet-energy loss models coupled to different…
We present perturbative quantum chromodynamics (pQCD) predictions for the modification to the yield of high-momentum particles in very light ion collisions - ${}^{10}\mathrm{B} + {}^{10}\mathrm{B}$, ${}^{6}\mathrm{Li} + {}^{6}\mathrm{Li}$,…

We study within the light-cone path integral approach the induced gluon emission from a fast quark passing through a finite-size QCD plasma. We show that the leading log approximation used in previous studies fails when the gluon formation…
In recent years, there has been an effort towards establishing a more complete picture for jet substructure in the presence of the quark gluon plasma. Such a program requires not only a more detailed description of medium induced effects,…

We compute the shear viscosity of QCD with matter, including almost all next-to-leading order corrections -- that is, corrections suppressed by one power of $g$ relative to leading order. We argue that the still missing terms are small. The…

Next-to-Leading-Order(NLO) QCD corrections to J/jpsi plus eta_c production in e+e- annihilation at sqrt{s}=10.6 GeV is calculated in this paper, and an analytic result is obtained. By choosing proper physical parameters, a K factor (ratio…
We explore the initial moments of impact between two dense granular clusters in a two-dimensional geometry. The particles are composed of solid CO$_{2}$ and are levitated on a hot surface. Upon collision, the propagation of a dynamic…
Binding energies calculated from using the Bethe-Salpeter equation in the simplest ladder approximation significantly differ from those obtained in the non-relativistic standard instantaneous approximation. While they should a priori be…
