A new channel of direct photon production from a quark gluon plasma (QGP) is explored in the framework of high-temperature QCD. This process appears at next-to-leading order, in the presence of a charge asymmetry in the excited matter. The…

The production of single photons in $Pb+Pb$ collisions at the CERN SPS as measured by the WA98 experiment is analysed. A quark gluon plasma is assumed to be formed initially, which expands, cools, hadronizes, and undergoes freeze-out. A…
An overview is presented of transverse momentum distributions of particles at the LHC using the Tsallis distribution. The use of a thermodynamically consistent form of this distribution leads to an excellent description of charged and…

We study the transverse momentum distribution of vector mesons produced in ultraperipheral relativistic heavy ion collisions (UPCs). In UPCs there is no strong interaction between the nuclei and the vector mesons are produced in…
Thermal photons from the photosphere may be the primary source of the observed prompt emission of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). In order to produce the observed non-thermal spectra, some kind of dissipation mechanism near the photosphere is…
We discuss the transverse momentum distribution of thermal and prompt photons in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions. The prompt photons are mostly produced by fragmentation of quark jets (bremsstrahlung). If these quark jets suffer a…
The transverse momentum distributions of hadrons produced in p-p collisions at LHC energies of Root(sNN) = 0.9 TeV, 2.76 TeV and Root(sNN) = 7.0 TeV have been studied using a unified statistical thermal freeze-out model. A good agreement is…
Heavy quarks are powerful tools to characterize the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) produced in relativistic nuclear collisions. By exploiting a mapping between transport theory and hydrodynamics, we developed a fluid-dynamic description of…
We calculate the production rate of soft real photons from a hot quark -- gluon plasma using Braaten -- Pisarski's perturbative resummation method. To leading order in the QCD coupling constant $g$ we find a logarithmically divergent result…
The time evolution of the quark gluon plasma created in gold-gold collisions of the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) can be described by hydrodynamical models. Distribution of hadrons reflects the freeze-out state of the matter. To…

We analyze the transverse momentum ($p_T$) and rapidity ($y$) spectra of top quark pairs, hadronic top quarks, and top quarks produced in proton-proton ($pp$) collisions at center-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s}=8$ TeV. For $p_T$ spectra, we use…
We discuss the shortcomings of a formula that has been used in the literature to compute the number of photons emitted by a hot or dense system during a finite time, and show that the transient effects it predicts for the photon rate are…
