Given the current landscape in experimental high-energy physics, these lectures are focused on applications of event generators for hadron colliders like the Tevatron and LHC. Section 2 contains a first overview of the physics picture and…
A review is given of the hard thermal loop resummation methods initiated by Braaten, Pisarski, and others. We describe some successes of these techniques as well as instances where modifications are necessary. Some possible directions where…
Manipulating surface topography is one of the most promising strategies for increasing the efficiency of numerous industrial processes involving droplet contact with superheated surfaces. In such scenarios, the droplets may immediately boil…
We study the thermalization of a class of 4-dimensional strongly coupled theories dual to a 5-dimensional AdS-Vaidya spacetime with Gauss-Bonnet curvature corrections. We probe the thermalization using the two-point functions, the…
We evaluate one-interval R\'enyi entropy and entanglement entropy for the excited states of two-dimensional conformal field theory (CFT) on a cylinder, and examine their differences from the ones for the thermal state. We assume the…
In this paper we carefully reexamine the various framworks existing in the field of relativistic thermodynamics. We scrutinize in particular the different conceptual foundations of notions like the relativistic work, heat force, moving heat…
This is the summary talk of the Nijmegen Workshop. The topics are: 1. Introduction, 2. Phenomenology of mature topics, 2.1 Bose-Einstein correlations, 2.2 Fluctuations, 2.3 Phenomenology of QCD and other dynamics, 3. Experiments not driven…
These are the proceedings of the workshop on "Strong interactions: From methods to structures" held at the Physikzentrum Bad Honnef of the Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft, Bad Honnef, Germany from February 12 to 16, 2011. The workshop…
Summary talk at ICHEP 2002, Amsterdam, July 2002. I have kept very close to the content and style of the talk as it was delivered. You may access the associated PowerPoint presentation through a link at…
This volume contains the proceedings of TERMGRAPH 2016, the Ninth International Workshop on Computing with Terms and Graphs which was held on April 8, 2016 in Eindhoven, The Netherlands, as a satellite event of the European Joint…
We investigate the rate of thermalization of local operators in the one-dimensional anisotropic antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model with next-nearest neighbor interactions that break integrability. This is done by calculating the scaling of…
This is the manuscript of my "Habilitation \`a diriger des recherches", where I present the research work that I have done after my PhD, defended in 2009. The manuscript is divided in two parts. The first one is dedicated to…
Electromagnetic emission in the form of photons or dileptons provide important information on the onset and evolution of a heavy ion collision at ultrarelativistic energies. We briefly summarize the theoretical assessments of the…
Studying the thermodynamics of the systems produced in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions is crucial in understanding the QCD phase diagram. Recently, a new avenue has opened regarding the implications of large initial angular momentum…
We investigate a weak version of subsystem eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH) for a two-dimensional large central charge conformal field theory by comparing the local equivalence of high energy state and thermal state of canonical…
Recently, different proposals have been put forward on how thermalization proceeds in heavy-ion collisions in the idealized limit of very large nuclei at sufficiently high energy. Important aspects of the parametric estimates at weak…
Sintering refers to particle coalescence by heat, which has been known as a thermal phenomenon involving all aspects of natural science for centuries. It is particularly important in heterogeneous catalysis because normally sintering…
In this paper, we investigate a class of Horndeski scalar-tensor theory of gravity for warm inflation. We present some models where the early-time acceleration is realized in the weak and in the strong dissipation regime. Cosmological…
The late Gerry Brown was not shy to tackle complex scientific problems that took time to play out but yielded in the end a deeper understanding of many-body phenomena. In this note, prepared for a memorial volume in his honor, we provide a…
We introduce a kinetical description of the hadronization of semi-deconfined quark matter produced in heavy ion collisions. A minimal microscopic model is considered in which the produced quarks and anti-quarks are redistributed into…
