Jet quenching without energy loss
The onset of jet quenching, i.e. the suppression of high transverse momentum particles and jets, is an important question in the context of understanding the onset of collective behaviour and small collision systems. We investigate a minimal scenario where a hard parton experiences a single soft re-scattering that leaves the kinematics unmodified, but the colour exchange leads to a loss of colour coherence that is observable in the final distribution of fragments. In particular, the formation t…

MaNGA AGN dwarf galaxies (MAD) -- IV. Revealing hidden AGN in dwarf galaxies with radio observations
Low-mass black holes hosted by dwarf galaxies offer valuable insights into galaxy formation and the growth of the massive black holes found in massive galaxies. Their detection as AGN is challenging due to their low luminosity and compact size. This can be circumvented employing multi-wavelength observational strategies, such as combining optical and radio observations, which enables the detection of AGN features that may be hidden in single-wavelength analyses We aim to detect any jet-like emi…

Despite a federal hiring freeze,
the Trump administration just appointed Kyle Walsh, who calls Vance one of his “closest friends”

There was no job announcement,
no search committee to identify top candidates,
no interviews or reference checks.
The position to lead the nation’s premier environmental health research institute wasn’t even open.

First Demonstration that Quark-Gluon Plasma has a Nonzero Resolution Length
We report on our investigation in arXiv:2509.08881 of how recent jet substructure measurements constrain the resolution length $L_{\rm res}$ of the quark-gluon plasma formed in heavy-ion collisions. $L_{\rm res}$ is defined such that high-energy partons within a jet shower are resolved by the medium if and only if they are separated by a distance greater than $L_{\rm res}$. Using the Hybrid Model, we reproduce ALICE data on the scaled Soft Drop angle $θ_g$ for $R=0.2$ charged-particle jets and…

Little in Dan Driscoll’s résumé – past or present – suggests he has the qualifications to understand the often-tortured and bloody history of relations between Russia and Ukraine.
A former investment banker with a degree in business administration, the current US army secretary’s main calling card for a prominent role in the Trump administration may be a friendship with JD Vance dating from when they were at Yale Law School together.
Against that thin backdrop, Driscoll now finds h…

The Physics of Jet Quenching in Perturbative QCD
Hard processes in collider experiments typically produce QCD jets, which have long served as precision tests of QCD in the vacuum. More recently, heavy-ion programs at RHIC and the LHC have offered a novel perspective on jets, establishing them as unique probes of strongly interacting matter. Experimental observations, including the suppression of high-$p_T$ hadrons and jets, provide compelling evidence for the formation of a new state of matter and its strong coupling to energetic partons.
