EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Theoretical study of the $Δ^{+ +} - Δ^{-}$ configuration in the deuteron using an antiproton beam

A. B. Larionov, A. Gillitzer, J. Haidenbauer, and M. Strikman

Phys. Rev. C 98, 054611 (2018) - Published 21 November, 2018

Evidence of non-nucleonic degrees of freedom in nuclei has long been sought. The authors show that the use of relativistic (light-cone) wave functions for the $Δ^{+ +}$ - $Δ^{-}$ component of the deuteron leads to a shape of the signal for this contribution that is significantly different from the use of nonrelativistic wave functions in the $\bar{p} d \to π^{-} π^{-} Δ^{+ +}$ reaction. Comparing with background reactions the results suggest that components as low as 0.3% could be observed.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Landau-Pomeranchuk-Midgal effect and charm production in $p p$ collisions at energies available at the CERN Large Hadron Collider using the parton cascade model

Dinesh K. Srivastava, Rupa Chatterjee, and Steffen A. Bass

Phys. Rev. C 98, 054910 (2018) - Published 28 November, 2018

For a quark-gluon plasma to form in nuclear collisions, the resulting partonic medium must be dense, and its constituents must interact. The authors examined proton-proton collisions at LHC energies, and focused on the production of charm quarks, since these are only produced in hard perturbative QCD interactions. The results indicate the formation of an interacting medium that is dense enough for the suppression of radiation to set in and yet permits multiple scatterings among partons. Their study shows the importance of multiple parton interactions even in proton-proton collisions.
