Precise QCD Predictions for Hadron-in-jet Production in $e^+e^-$ Collisions
hep-ph 2026-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

First NNLO QCD predictions for hadron-in-jet cross sections in e+e- two- and three-jet events, with ALEPH comparisons showing improved convergence when the fragmentation scale is set by the jet resolution.
Investigating forward-backward asymmetry in D-meson production and anisotropic flow in p-Pb collisions at the LHC
nucl-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0 of 10

AMPT model calculations indicate that forward-backward asymmetry in D0 meson RpPb and v2 in 8.16 TeV p-Pb collisions arises from initial-state cold nuclear effects and final-state partonic interactions, with coalescen...
