Project objective

At high temperature, quarks and gluons are no longer confined in hadrons and form instead a complex phase of matter called the quark-gluon plasma. Among the various ways of probing this phase in nucleus-nucleus collisions, a promising one is to study how jets are affected by their propagation through the quark-gluon plasma, an effect commonly referred to as jet quenching. This project aims at developing a consistent computational framework grounded in perturbative quantum chromodynamics to describe jet quenching from large to small colliding system sizes. Its final outcome is twofold. It will deepen our understanding of the embedding of jets in a space-time structure as well as answer topical questions regarding the phenomenology of jet quenching in small systems.
