Research Interests

My research interests are broadly concentrated on the theoretical study of extended systems of QCD matter at all temperatures and densities which are experimentally accessible. Systems range from cold confined nuclear matter to hot deconfined quark gluon plasmas. The theoretical techniques used in such studies range from perturbative QCD calculations, lattice QCD simulations, to the use of effective theories and phenomenological models.

Current Efforts

All such systems at very short distances are composed of elementary partons: quarks and gluons. My current goals consist of determining the change in this substructure as one goes from cold confined to hot deconfined matter. The primary experiments are Deep-Inelastic Scattering (DIS) on large nuclei and high transverse momentum hadron production in heavy-ion collisions.
