This paper employs the Parton-Hadron-String Dynamics (PHSD) transport approach combined with the Remler formalism to validate a consistent description of charmonium production in pp and pA collisions at SPS energies and provides theoretical predictions for yields and survival probabilities at FAIR energies, offering crucial guidance for mapping the QCD phase structure in baryon-rich matter.
This paper introduces NS-UNO, a flexible Neural Posterior Estimation framework that combines hierarchical DeepSets and conditional normalizing flows to infer the neutron star equation of state from an unconstrained number of mass-radius observations, demonstrating robust performance across varying dataset sizes, precisions, and equation-of-state families.
This paper presents the first part of an SU(3)-flavour-symmetric lattice QCD study that determines the strong scattering phase shift for the channel and infers the corresponding strong phase of the weak decay, while outlining the methodology for computing the full decay amplitude in a forthcoming publication.
This paper investigates the resonant interaction between stochastic gravitational waves and chiral Alfvén waves in the early Universe's magnetized plasma, demonstrating that their coupling leads to a parametric resonance causing finite-time blow-up and predicting observable signatures for current and future gravitational-wave detectors.
This paper presents the first continuous numerical evolution of Nambu-Goto cosmic string loops under gravitational backreaction, revealing that while cusps persist, the resulting gravitational wave bursts are significantly weakened and high-frequency suppressed, thereby reducing their detectability compared to unperturbed predictions.
This paper presents a quantum computing framework that utilizes an auxiliary two-level pseudomode to simulate both Markovian and non-Markovian open quantum dynamics relevant to heavy-ion collisions, thereby enabling future studies of hard probes like jets and heavy quarks.
This paper presents an impact-parameter dependent perturbative QCD model based on the Color Glass Condensate framework, which successfully describes a wide range of combined HERA data at small- by incorporating an analytical solution to the Balitsky-Kovchegov equation and an exponential saturation momentum profile consistent with the Froissart theorem.
This paper advances a modified homotopy approach for solving the nonlinear evolution equation governing diffractive production in deep inelastic scattering by analytically solving a simplified version with initial and boundary conditions and then applying a perturbative procedure to estimate the remaining small nonlinear corrections.
This paper reviews a modified homotopic approach that analytically solves a simplified non-linear evolution equation for diffractive production in deep inelastic scattering by incorporating specific non-linear corrections into the linear term, finding that these corrections are small enough to be estimated via a regular iterative procedure.
This paper proposes a homotopy approach to analytically solve the nonlinear Balitsky-Kovchegov evolution equation with a running QCD coupling, demonstrating that the first iteration achieves high accuracy for the leading twist kernel while also analyzing geometric scaling and infrared cutoff dependencies.
