There have been different proposals for signatures of the formation of a deconfined thermal medium(quark-gluon plasma) in heavy-ion collisions. The suppression of $J/\Psi$ in the deconfined medium is one of the cleanest signals among many other signatures like elliptic flow, jet quenching etc. However, there are very few signals effective for the formation of QGP in small systems such as the...
Proton–proton ( pp) collision has been considered a baseline to understand the formation of the primordial matter, the quark-gluon plasma in relativistic heavy-ion (AA) collisions. However, recent experimental findings show QGP-like phenomena in ultra-relativistic (TeV) pp collisions. Such findings require a cautious study of the system produced in pp collisions at relativistic energies. In...
Recent findings of strangeness enhancement and ridge-like structures in pp collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) have captured much of the scientific interest in the search for QGP-droplets in pp high-multiplicity events. Thus, it is crucial to gather substantial evidence in this new direction. Studying various thermodynamic and transport properties of the matter formed at LHC can give...
In presence of magnetic field the transport coefficients of heavy quarks are seen to have a multi-component structure due to which the spatial diffusion splits into
longitudinal and transverse components relative to the direction of magnetic field. Owing to the Einstein's relation, the spatial diffusion is expressed as a ratio of electrical conductivity and susceptibility. The anisotropic...
