Particles, Volume 6, Issue 2

2023 June - 15 articles

Cover Story: A review of the recent progress and present status on the study of transverse momentum dependent fragmentation functions, which tell us how colored quarks and gluons produced at high-energy collisions transform into color-neutral hadrons observed by detectors.
Several topics are selected, covering QCD factorization and evolution, parton spin and hadron spin dependence, and high-twist effects. With a particular focus on phenomenology, recent experimental measurements, global analyses, and some model calculations are discussed in depth. As an active frontier of nuclear and particle physics, it is closely related to the measurements taken in many existing experiments and future facilities, such as electron-ion colliders. View this paper

9 May 2023

We explore the chemical potential of a QCD-motivated van der Waals (VDW) phase change model for the six-quark color-singlet, strangeness S = −2 particle known as the hexaquark with quark content (uuddss). The hexaquark may have internal structu...

11 April 2023

In this study, we discuss how iterative solutions of QCD-inspired gap-equations at the finite chemical potential demonstrate domains of chaotic behavior as well as non-chaotic domains, which represent one or the other of the only two—usually di...
