TLDR
A Monte Carlo event generator HIJING is developed to study jet and multiparticle production in high energy {ital pp, {ital pA}, and {ital AA} collisions, and a schematic mechanism of jet interactions in dense matter is described.
Abstract
Combining perturbative-QCD inspired models for multiple jet production with low ${p}_{T}$ multistring phenomenology, we develop a Monte Carlo event generator hijing to study jet and multiparticle production in high energy $\mathrm{pp}$, $\mathrm{pA}$, and $\mathrm{AA}$ collisions. The model includes multiple minijet production, nuclear shadowing of parton distribution functions, and a schematic mechanism of jet interactions in dense matter. Glauber geometry for multiple collisions is used to calculate $\mathrm{pA}$ and $\mathrm{AA}$ collisions. The phenomenological parameters are adjusted to reproduce essential features of $\mathrm{pp}$ multiparticle production data for a wide energy range ($\sqrt{s}=5\ensuremath{-}2000$ GeV). Illustrative tests of the model on $p+A$ and light-ion $B+A$ data at $\sqrt{s}=20$ GeV/nucleon and predictions for Au+Au at energies of the BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider ($\sqrt{s}=200$ GeV/nucleon) are given.

Universal parametrization of jet production based on parton and fragment rapidities

TL;DR: In this article, a parametrization of jet momentum spectra based on measured logarithmic jet production trends is presented. But event-wise jet reconstruction can be complex and susceptible to measurement bias.

TL;DR: In this article, a data-driven method was applied to Au+Au collisions at root S-NN = 200 GeV made with the STAR detector at RHIC to isolate pseudorapidity distance Delta eta-dependent and Delta independent correlations by using two-and four-particle azimuthal cumulant measurements.

Collision system size scan of collective flows in relativistic heavy-ion collisions

TL;DR: In this article, the collision system dependence of collective flows and the effects on collective flows from initial fluctuations in a framework of a multiphase transport model are discussed, and the results shed light on system scan on experimental efforts to small system physics.

Jets in d ( p ) − A collisions: Color transparency or energy conservation

TL;DR: In this article, a modified version of the event generator pythia, widely used to simulate $p\ensuremath{-}p$ collisions, is used in conjunction with a nuclear Monte Carlo event generator which simulates the locations of the nucleons within a large nucleus.
