abstract

Energy-energy correlators are constructed by averaging the number of charged particle pairs within jets, weighted by the product of their transverse momenta, as a function of the angular separation of the particles within a pair. They are sensitive to a multitude of perturbative and nonperturbative quantum chromodynamics phenomena in high-energy particle collisions. Using lead-lead data recorded with the CMS detector, energy-energy correlators inside high transverse momentum jets are measured in heavy ion collisions for the first time. The data are obtained at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy of 5.02 TeV and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 1.70 nb$^{-1}$. A similar analysis is done for proton-proton collisions at the same center-of-mass energy to establish a reference. The ratio of lead-lead to proton-proton energy-energy correlators reveals significant jet substructure modifications in the quark-gluon plasma. The results are compared to different models that incorporate either color coherence or medium response effects, where the two effects predict similar substructure modifications.

    hep-ph 2026-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Per-jet fluctuations of binned energy-energy correlators show a smaller covariance trace and larger neighboring-shell correlations at hadron level than at parton level in Pythia and Herwig across all tested configurations.

  2. Benchmarking the Nearside Energy-Energy Correlators with Mellin Transform

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A Mellin-transform framework with one fitted transition scale Λ describes nearside EECs in e+e− annihilation at NNLO+NNLL accuracy across ALEPH and earlier data.

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Updated CoLBT-hydro simulations with Q_M=2.0 GeV reproduce CMS in-jet EEC data, validate background subtraction, and show path-length and diffusion-wake effects.

    hep-ph 2025-09 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In the Hybrid Model, two- and three-point energy correlators of jets in PbPb collisions cleanly separate wake and elastic-scattering contributions, with both effects needed to match CMS and ALICE data.

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In the post-confinement regime the small-angle energy-energy correlator scales with the collision energy through the J=5 DGLAP anomalous dimension, and the light-ray OPE coefficients are moments of the dihadron fragme...

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A new all-order resummation formula in Fourier b_T-space for the nearside energy-energy correlator, derived from di-hadron fragmentation functions, matches fixed-order calculations and predicts a small-angle turnover.

  7. What is the Quark-Gluon Plasma made of?

    nucl-th 2025-06 accept novelty 2.0 of 10

    The quark-gluon plasma is best described as a strongly coupled liquid of massive, very short-lived quark and gluon quasiparticles, with sound (phonon) modes becoming the most well-defined collective excitation at low momenta.
