At the CERN Large Hadron Collider, protons and heavy ions are collided at relativistic
speeds in order to study the behavior and processes of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). One such process is the production of collimated sprays of particles called jets resulting from the hard scattering of two partons. Jets are an important probe that provide a window into the early stages of the collision.
Measurements in small systems such as proton-proton (pp) and proton-lead (p–Pb)
collisions are important in order to provide constraints on nuclear parton distribution
functions and the strong coupling constant αS [55]. Measurements at different center of …

Heavy-ion collisions at LHC energies create a hot and dense medium of deconned quarks
and gluons, known as the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) [56]. The QGP reball rst expands,
cools and then freezes out into a collection of nal-state hadrons. Correlations between the
free particles carry information about the space-time extent of the emitting source, and are
imprinted on the nal-state spectra due to a quantum-mechanical interference eect [18].
The correlation of two identical particles at small relative momentum, commonly known as
intensity, or Hanbury Brown-Twiss (HBT), interferometry, is an eective tool to study the
space-time structure of the emitting source …
