| 11:00 - 12:00 Journal Club: Experiment & Phenomenology – meeting Scaling approach to nuclear structure in high-energy heavy-ion collisions School PARTICLES AND ACCELERATORS Abstract: In high-energy heavy-ion collisions, the initial condition of the produced quark-gluon plasma (QGP) and its evolution are sensitive to collective nuclear structure parameters describing the shape and radial profiles of the nuclei. We find a general scaling relation between these parameters and many experimental observables such as elliptic flow, triangular flow, and particle multiplicity distribution. In particular, the ratios of observables between two isobar systems depend only on the differences of these parameters, but not on the details of the final state interactions, hence offering a new way to constrain the QG ... |
