A model for nuclear medium modification of parton densities is presented. The approach is based on the global analysis of available deep inelastic scattering data for different nuclear targets within the rescaling model combined with taking…

The proton and neutron inclusive distributions in the projectile fragmentation region of $pA$ collisions are studied in the valon model. Momentum degradation and flavor changes due to the nuclear medium are described at the valon level…

We propose the use of N-jettiness (\tau_N), a global event shape variable, as a probe of nuclear dynamics in lepton-nucleus collisions. It characterizes the amount of soft radiation between the jet and nuclear beam directions. We write down…

The dependence of the hadron interaction on its structure is examined in the framework of the generelized parton distributions (GPDs). The x dependence of the GPDs is determined by the parton distribution functions (PDFs), which were…

Nuclear Generalized Parton Distributions (GPDs), a unique tool to access several crucial features of nuclear structure, could be measured in the coherent channel of hard exclusive processes, such as deep electroproduction of photons and…

We use recent nuclear parton distributions, among them the Hirai--Kumano--Nagai (HKN) and Eskola--Paukkunen--Salgado (EPS08) parameterizations, in our pQCD-improved parton model to calculate the nuclear modification factor, R_{AA'}(p_T), at…

We investigate the system size dependence of jet-quenching by analyzing transverse momentum spectra of neutral pions in Au+Au and Cu+Cu collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\textrm{NN}}}$ =200 GeV for different centralities. The fast partons are assumed…

We present progress towards a unified framework enabling the simultaneous determination of the parton distribution functions (PDFs) of the proton, deuteron, and nuclei up to lead $(^{208}\rm{Pb})$. Our approach is based on the integration…

A clear understanding of nuclear parton distribution functions (nPDFs) plays a crucial role in the interpretation of collider data taken at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC), the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and in the near future…

We explore how nuclear modifications to the free nucleon structure functions (also known as shadowing) affect heavy quark production in collisions at different impact parameters. We assume that the nuclear modifications arise from a density…

Nuclear parton distribution functions (nuclear PDFs) are non-perturbative objects that encode the partonic behaviour of bound nucleons. To avoid potential higher-twist contributions, the data probing the high-$x$ end of nuclear PDFs are…

We report recent ALICE results on primary charged particle and neutral meson production in pp, p--Pb, Pb--Pb and Xe--Xe collisions at LHC energies. In this article, measurements of the nuclear modification factors $R_{\rm AA}$ of primary…

The recent global analyses of the nuclear parton distribution functions (nPDFs) lend support to the validity of the factorization theorem of QCD in high-energy processes involving bound nucleons. With a special attention on our latest…

New hard-scattering measurements from the LHC proton-lead run have the potential to provide important constraints on the nuclear parton distributions and thus contributing to a better understanding of the initial state in heavy ion…

Parton Distribution Functions (PDFs) are a key ingredient in theoretical predictions for Large Hadron Collider (LHC) observables and play a central role in the extraction of precision Standard Model (SM) and Beyond the SM (BSM) parameters…

We present the main results of our recent papers, where we derived an analytical solution of the QCD evolution equations for parton distribution functions. The valence and non-singlet quark components satisfy the Gross-Llewellyn-Smith and…

We evaluate the uncertainties due to nuclear effects in global fits of proton parton distribution functions (PDFs) that utilise deep-inelastic scattering and Drell-Yan data on deuterium targets. To do this we use an iterative procedure to…

We calculate nuclear parton distribution functions (PDFs), using the constituent quark model. We find the bounded valon distributions in a nuclear to be related to free valon distributions in a nucleon. By using improved bounded valon…

The NA57 experiment has measured the pt distributions of K0s, Lambda, and antiLambda particles in fixed-target Pb-Pb interactions at sqrt(s_{NN})=17.3 GeV as a function of the collision centrality. In this paper we study the…

We have studied the prospects of using the Drell-Yan dilepton process in pion-nucleus collisions as a novel input in the global analysis of nuclear parton distribution functions (nPDFs). In a NLO QCD framework, we find the measured nuclear…
