A parton recombination approach to heavy ion collisions at RHIC and LHC
Daniel Krieg
TL;DR
This thesis presents a phenomenological parton recombination model for hadronization in heavy ion collisions, successfully matching RHIC data and predicting outcomes for the LHC.
Contribution
It introduces a parton recombination approach that accurately describes RHIC data and extends predictions to LHC energies.
Findings
Excellent agreement with RHIC flow coefficients v_2 and v_4
Model successfully extrapolates to LHC predictions
Provides a new phenomenological framework for heavy ion hadronization
Abstract
This thesis discusses the phenomenological parton recombination approach to describe hadronization in heavy ion collisions. The very good agreement to RHIC data for the flow coefficients v_2 and v_4 is shown and extrapolations are used to make predictions for the LHC.
