Research in theoretical nuclear physics currently relies on high-performance computing to conduct ab initio simulations of atomic nuclei. These calculations enable systematic predictions, serving…

Fragmentation, the process by which quarks and gluons turn into hadrons, cannot be computed from first principles in QCD and has to be extracted from data. Transverse-momentum-dependent…

A few microseconds after the Big Bang, the Universe was filled with a quark-gluon plasma (QGP), a hot and dense state of matter described by Quantum Chromodynamics, the theory of the strong…

The pion is a key particle for understanding Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), the theory of the strong interaction. However, its gluon content, remains poorly understood. This thesis will explore a…

The study of so-called ‘deformed’ atomic nuclei with a non-spherical charge distribution is essential for testing nuclear interactions and structural models. These deformed nuclei exhibit a very…

At CERN, the LHCb experiment sees protons collide tens of millions of times per second and must decide, in real time, which collisions to keep. Today this is done by thousands of small programs,…
