The creation of partons with transverse momenta around 10 GeV/c in Pb-Pb collisions at LHC is expected to be so copious that the parton density may be high enough for neighboring jet cones to overlap. If the shower partons in adjacent jets…

The exact mechanism by which astrophysical jets are formed is still unknown. It is believed that necessary elements are a rotating (Kerr) black hole and a magnetised accreting plasma. We model the accreting plasma as a collection of…

We compute cross sections for events where two pairs of partons scatter off each other in the same $\gamma\gamma$ reaction, giving rise to at least 3 high--{\mbox{$p_T^{}$}} jets. Unlike in {\mbox{$p \bar p$}}\ collisions we find the signal…

Using a multiphase transport model, we study the production of a new strange dibaryon (\Omega\Omega)_{0+} in dense hadronic matter formed in relativistic heavy ion collisions. The (multi-)strange baryons (\Xi and \Omega) are produced by…

In the symmetric string fragmentation recipe adopted by PYTHIA for jet simulations, the transverse momenta of successive quarks are uncorrelated. This is a simplification but has no theoretical reason. Transverse momentum correlations are…

The collision of magnetic reconnection jets is studied by means of a three dimensional numerical simulation at kinetic scale, in the presence of a strong guide field. We show that turbulence develops due to the jets collision producing…

A jet algorithm must specify how to (re-)combine different partons or towers into a single four-vector. Various recombination schemes have been used experimentally to examine the transverse energy profile of jets in hadron colliders.…

Nuclear collisions exhibit long-range rapidity correlations not present in proton-proton collisions. Because the correlation structure is wide in relative pseudorapidity and narrow in relative azimuthal angle, it is known as the ridge.…

In the standard pQCD picture particles are produced via the parton jet fragmentation process. However, there are also other production mechanisms like higher twist (HT) processes. A usual example of a HT process is a direct production of an…
