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

Quarkonia represent one of the most valuable probes of the deconfined quark–gluon hot medium since the very first experimental studies with ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions. A significant step forward in characterizing the QCD matter via...

The hadronization of a high-energy parton is described by fragmentation functions which are introduced through QCD factorizations. While the hadronization mechanism per se remains uknown, fragmentation functions can still be investigated qualitativel...

The elliptic flow (v2) of produced particles is one of the important observables sensitive to the transport properties of the strongly interacting matter created in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Detailed differential measurements of v2 are also...

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...
