Signatures of collective behavior have been measured in highly relativistic p+p collisions, as well as in p+A, d+A, and 3He+A collisions. Numerous particle correlation measurements in these systems have been successfully described by calculations based on viscous hydrodynamic and transport models. These observations raise the question of the minimum necessary conditions for a system to exhibit collectivity. Recently, numerous scientists have raised the question of whether the quarks and gluons generated in e+e- collisions may satisfy these minimum conditions. In this paper we explore possible signatures of collectivity, or lack thereof, in e+e- collisions utilizing A Multi-Phase Transport (AMPT) framework which comprises melted color strings, parton scattering, hadronization, and hadron re-scattering.

The correction to the Coulomb energy due to virtual production of $e^+e^-$ pairs, which is on the order of one percent of the Coulomb energy at nuclear scales is discussed. The effects of including a pair-production term in the semi-empirical mass formula and the correction to the Coulomb barrier for a handful of nuclear collisions using the Bass and Coulomb potentials are studied. With an eye toward future work using Constrained Molecular Dynamics (CoMD) model, we also calculate the correction to the Coulomb energy and force between protons after folding with a Gaussian spatial distribution.
A new lowest order QED calculation for RHIC e+ e- pair production has been carried out with a phenomenological treatment of the Coulomb dissociation of the heavy ion nuclei observed in the STAR ZDC triggers. The lowest order QED result for the experimental acceptance is nearly two standard deviations larger than the STAR data. A corresponding higher order QED calculation is consistent with the data.
Lowest order and higher order QED calculations have been carried out for the RHIC high mass e+ e- pairs observed by PHENIX with single ZDC triggers. The lowest order QED results for the experimental acceptance are about two standard deviations larger than the PHENIX data. Corresponding higher order QED calculations are within one standard deviation of the data.
Experimental studies of hypernuclear dynamics, besides being essential for the understanding of strong interactions in the strange sector, have important astrophysical implications. The observation of neutron stars with masses exceeding two solar masses poses a serious challenge to the models of hyperon dynamics in dense nuclear matter, many of which predict a maximum mass incompatible with the data. In this article, it is argued that valuable new insight may be gained extending the experimental studies of kaon electro production from nuclei to include the $isotope[208][]{rm Pb}(e,e^prime K^+) isotope[208][Lambda]{rm Tl}$ process. The connection with proton knockout reactions and the availability of accurate $isotope[208][]{rm Pb}(e,e^prime p) isotope[207][]{rm Tl}$ data can be exploited to achieve a largely model-independent analysis of the measured cross section. A framework for the description of kaon electro production based on the formalism of nuclear many-body theory is outlined.
The sums over (e,e) spectra of 6Li and 7Li nuclei which correspond to the longitudinal sum rule are studied. It is suggested that due to the cluster structure of the lithium isotopes these sums may approximately be expressed in terms of such a sum pertaining to the alpha-particle. Calculation of these sums is performed in the framework of cluster models with antisymmetrization done with respect to all the nucleons. At momentum transfers higher than 0.8 fm^{-1} the relations expressing the A=6 or 7 sum in terms of the A=4 sum prove to be valid with rather high accuracy. In the region of momentum transfers around 1 fm^{-1} the longitudinal correlation functions of 6Li and 7Li nuclei are found to be close to that of the alpha-particle. The experimental longitudinal sums in the range between 0.450 and 1.625 fm^{-1} are employed to perform comparison with those calculated in the framework of cluster models. Out of the mentioned experimental sums, those in the range between 0.750 and 1.000 fm^{-1} in the 6Li case and between 0.750 and 1.125 fm^{-1} in the 7Li case are obtained in the present work. In the 6Li case a complete agreement is found while in the 7Li case an agreement only at a qualitative level is observed.
