Study of the azimuthal asymmetry in heavy ion collisions combining initial state momentum orientation and final state collective effects

In the present work we investigate the source of azimuthal asymmetry for nuclear collision using a model that contemplates particles produced in the initial hard collisions and the collective effects described by a Blast-Wave like expansion. The latter is described by the relaxation time approximation of the Boltzmann transport equation. The parameters regarding collective flow and asymmetry are fitted by the experimental data from $p_T$ spectrum and $v_2$ for PbPb and XeXe collisions at different centrality classes. As a by-product the ratio of final elliptic flow with the initial anisotropy, $v_2/ε_2$, and the average transverse momentum are predicted.

Investigating exclusive $ρ^0$ photoproduction within the Regge phenomenology approach

The elastic differential and integrated total cross section for the exclusive $ρ^0$ photoproduction in electron-proton ($ep$) collisions are evaluated taking into account nonperturbative Pomeron exchange approach. By using three different models based on Regge phenomenology the results are compared to recent measurements by H1 Collaboration in $ep$ collisions and by the CMS collaboration from ultraperipheral proton-lead collisions. The analysis is expanded by calculating the coherent nuclear cross section, $σ(γA\rightarrow ρ^0 A)$, which is applied to $ρ^0$ production in ultraperipheral lead-lead and xenon-xenon collisions. The predictions are compared to the measurements performed by ALICE Collaboration. Aspects of the theoretical uncertainties and limitations of the formalism are scrutinized.
