Abstract This White Paper aims at highlighting the important benefits in the science reach of
the EIC. High luminosity operation is generally desirable, as it enables producing and …

This report reviews the study of open heavy-flavour and quarkonium production in high-
energy hadronic collisions, as tools to investigate fundamental aspects of Quantum …

We introduce a global analysis of collinearly factorized nuclear parton distribution functions
(PDFs) including, for the first time, data constraints from LHC proton–lead collisions. In …

This White Paper presents the science case of an Electron-Ion Collider (EIC), focused on the
structure and interactions of gluon-dominated matter, with the intent to articulate it to the …

A golden age for heavy-quarkonium physics dawned a decade ago, initiated by the
confluence of exciting advances in quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and an explosion of …

The physics programme and the design are described of a new collider for particle and
nuclear physics, the Large Hadron Electron Collider (LHeC), in which a newly built electron …

Extensive experimental data from high-energy nucleus-nucleus collisions were recorded
using the PHENIX detector at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). The comprehensive …

The inclusive J/ψ nuclear modification factor (R AA) in Pb–Pb collisions at s NN= 2.76 TeV
has been measured by ALICE as a function of centrality in the e+ e− decay channel at mid …

We present a next-to-leading order (NLO) global DGLAP analysis of nuclear parton
distribution functions (nPDFs) and their uncertainties. Carrying out an NLO nPDF analysis …

The ALICE experiment has measured the inclusive J/ψ production in Pb-Pb collisions at s
NN= 2.76 TeV down to zero transverse momentum in the rapidity range 2.5< y< 4. A …
