The nuclear symmetry energy characterizes the variation of the binding energy as the
neutron to proton ratio of a nuclear system is varied. This is one of the most important …

We highlight the progress, current status, and open challenges of QCD-driven physics, in
theory and in experiment. We discuss how the strong interaction is intimately connected to a …

We report on the measurements of directed flow v 1 and elliptic flow v 2 for hadrons (π±, K±,
KS 0, p, ϕ, Λ and Ξ−) from Au+ Au collisions at s NN= 3 GeV and v 2 for (π±, K±, p and p‾) at …

We present measurements of bulk properties of the matter produced in Au+ Au collisions at s
NN= 7.7, 11.5, 19.6, 27, and 39 GeV using identified hadrons (π±, K±, p, and p¯) from the …

Polarized quarks and antiquarks in high-energy heavy-ion collisions can lead to the spin
alignment of vector mesons formed by quark coalescence. Using the relativistic spin …

The yields of the K*(892) 0 and ϕ (1020) resonances are measured in Pb-Pb collisions at s
NN= 2.76 TeV through their hadronic decays using the ALICE detector. The measurements …

The first measurement of lepton-jet momentum imbalance and azimuthal correlation in
lepton-proton scattering at high momentum transfer is presented. These data, taken with the …

Identified charged-particle spectra of π±, K±, p, and p¯ at midrapidity (| y|< 0. 1) measured by
the dE/dx method in the STAR (solenoidal tracker at the BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider) …

The elliptic, v2, triangular, v3, and quadrangular, v4, azimuthal anisotropic flow coefficients
are measured for unidentified charged particles, pions, and (anti-) protons in Pb–Pb …

We assess the current phenomenological status of transverse momentum dependent (TMD)
parton distribution functions (PDFs) and fragmentation functions (FFs) and study the effect of …
