Abstract Lepton scattering is an established ideal tool for studying inner structure of small particles such as nucleons well nuclei. As a future high energy nuclear physics project, Electron-ion collider in China (EicC) has been proposed. It will be constructed based on upgraded heavy-ion accelerator, High Intensity Accelerator Facility (HIAF) which currently under construction, together with new electron ring. The proposed provide highly polarized electrons (with polarization ∼80%) and...
Predictions for charged hadron, identified light quarkonium, photon, jet and gauge bosons in p+ Pb collisions at [Formula: see text] are compiled compared. When test run data available, they compared to the model predictions.
Exploring the nature of exotic multiquark candidates such as X(3872) plays a pivotal role in understanding quantum chromodynamics (QCD). Despite significant efforts, consensus on their internal structures is still lacking. As prime example, it remains pressing open question to decipher state between two popular configurations: loose hadronic molecule or compact tetraquark. We demonstrate novel approach help address this problem by studying production heavy ion collisions, where hot fireball...
We present a systematic quantum algorithm, which integrates both the hadronic state preparation and evaluation of real-time light-front correlators, to study parton distribution functions (PDFs). As proof concept, we demonstrate first direct simulation PDFs in $1+1$ dimensional Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model. show results obtained by exact diagonalization computation using classical hardware. The agreement between these two distinct methods qualitative consistency with QCD validate proposed...

The factorization cross section obtained Soft Collinear Effective Theory (SCET), and we show relevant TMDFFs...
Hadron spectroscopy provides direct physical measurements that shed light on the nonperturbative behavior of quantum chromodynamics (QCD). In particular, various exotic hadrons such as newly observed ${T}_{cc}^{+}$ by LHCb collaboration, offer unique insights QCD dynamics in hadron structures. this paper, we demonstrate how heavy ion collisions can serve a powerful venue for study doubly charmed virtue extremely charm-rich environment created collisions.

Single inclusive hadron production at forward rapidity in high energy p+A collisions is an important probe of the gluon density regime QCD and associated small-x formalism. We revisit earlier one-loop calculation to illustrate significance "rapidity factorization" approach this regime. Such factorization separates very unintegrated evolution leads a new correction term physical cross section level. Importantly, formalism remedies previous unphysical negative next-to-leading-order...
The jet fragmentation function describes the longitudinal momentum distribution of hadrons inside a reconstructed jet. We study in proton-proton collisions framework soft-collinear effective theory (SCET). find that, up to power corrections, can be expressed as ratio fragmenting and unmeasured function. Using renormalization group techniques, we are able resum large logarithms radii R perturbative expansion cross section. use our theoretical formalism describe functions for light hadron...
Relativistic heavy-ion experiments have observed similar quenching effects for (prompt) $D$ mesons compared to charged hadrons transverse momenta larger than 6-8~GeV, which remains a mystery since heavy quarks typically lose less energies in quark-gluon plasma light and gluons. Recent measurements of the nuclear modification factors $B$ $B$-decayed by CMS Collaboration provide unique opportunity study flavor hierarchy jet quenching. Using linear Boltzmann transport model combined with...
In 2017, STAR Collaboration reported the measurements of hyperon global polarization in heavy ion collisions, suggesting subatomic fireball fluid created these collisions as most vortical fluid. There remains interesting question: at which beam energy truly will be located. this work we perform a systematic study on dependence phenomenon, especially $\hat{O}(1\sim 10)\ \rm GeV$ region. We find non-monotonic trend, with to first increase and then decrease when is lowered from $27~\rm down...

The is able incorporate scatterings bound states, ideal involving small number particles. We expect have particular advantages when applied exclusive hadron...
A set of quasi-parton distribution functions (quasi-PDFs) have been recently proposed by Ji. Defined as the matrix elements equal-time spatial correlations, they can be computed on lattice and should reduce to standard PDFs when proton momentum $P_z$ is very large. Since taking $P_z\to \infty$ limit not feasible in simulations, it essential provide guidance for what values quasi-PDFs are good approximations PDFs. Within framework spectator diquark model, we evaluate both up down quarks' all...

In paper, we explore to what extent such can be understood by framework standard cold matter effects, particular initial-state energy loss. We demonstrate quantitatively that theoretical calculations which include medium-induced radiative corrections describe...
