We calculate the cross section of inclusive dijet photoproduction in ultraperipheral collisions (UPCs) of heavy ions at the CERN Large Hadron Collider using next-to-leading order perturbative QCD and demonstrate that it provides a good description of the ATLAS data. We study the role of this data in constraining nuclear parton distribution functions (nPDFs) using the Bayesian reweighting technique and find that it can reduce current uncertainties of nPDFs at small $x$ by a factor of 2. We also make predictions for diffractive dijet photoproduction in UPCs and examine its potential to shed light on the disputed mechanism of QCD factorization breaking in diffraction.

Various pion and photon production mechanisms in high-energy nuclear collisions at RHIC and LHC are discussed. Comparison with RHIC data is done whenever possible. The prospect of using electromagnetic probes to characterize quark-gluon plasma formation is assessed.
In this letter we update our predictions for exclusive $J/Psi$ and $Upsilon$ photoproduction in proton-proton and nucleus - nucleus collisions at the Run 2 LHC energies obtained with the color dipole formalism and considering the impact parameter Col or Glass Condensate model (bCGC) for the forward dipole - target scattering amplitude. A comparison with the LHCb data on rapidity distributions and photon - hadron cross sections is presented. Our results demonstrate that the current data can be quite well described by the bCGC model, which takes into account nonlinear effects in the QCD dynamics and reproduces the very precise HERA data, without introducing any additional effect or free parameter.
Recently, machine learning (ML) techniques have led to a range of numerous developments in the field of nuclear and high-energy physics. In heavy-ion collisions, the impact parameter of a collision is one of the crucial observables which has a signif icant impact on the final state particle production. However, calculation of such a quantity is nearly impossible in experiments as the length scale ranges in the level of a few fermi. In this work, we implement the ML-based regression technique via Boosted Decision Tree (BDT) to obtain a prediction of impact parameter in Pb-Pb collisions at $sqrt{s_{rm NN}}$ = 5.02 TeV using A Multi-Phase Transport (AMPT) model. In addition, we predict an event shape observable, transverse spherocity in Pb-Pb collisions at $sqrt{s_{rm NN}}$ = 2.76 and 5.02 TeV using AMPT and PYTHIA8 based on Angantyr model. After a successful implementation in small collision systems, the use of transverse spherocity in heavy-ion collisions has potential to reveal new results from heavy-ion collisions where the production of a QGP medium is already established. We predict the centrality dependent spherocity distributions from the training of minimum bias simulated data and it was found that the predictions from BDT based ML technique match with true simulated data. In the absence of experimental measurements, we propose to implement Machine learning based regression technique to obtain transverse spherocity from the known final state observables in heavy-ion collisions.
The production of light (anti-)(hyper-)nuclei in heavy-ion collisions at the LHC is considered in the framework of the Saha equation, making use of the analogy between the evolution of the early universe after the Big Bang and that of Little Bangs cr eated in the lab. Assuming that disintegration and regeneration reactions involving light nuclei proceed in relative chemical equilibrium after the chemical freeze-out of hadrons, their abundances are determined through the famous cosmological Saha equation of primordial nucleosynthesis and show no exponential dependence on the temperature typical for the thermal model. A quantitative analysis, performed using the hadron resonance gas model in partial chemical equilibrium, shows agreement with experimental data of the ALICE collaboration on d, $^3$He, $^3_Lambda$H, and $^4$He yields for a very broad range of temperatures at $T lesssim 155$ MeV. The presented picture is supported by the observed suppression of resonance yields in central Pb-Pb collisions at the LHC.
