Speaker: Hendrik Roch (Wayne State)

Abstract: In this seminar, I will introduce the latest developments in the JETSCAPE 3.6 framework, focusing on enhancements in the hybrid hadronization module. The talk delves into the benefits of hybrid hadronization, presenting a unified hadronization framework applicable to diverse partonic systems—ranging from $e^++e^-$ and $p+p$ collisions to full heavy-ion collisions, encompassing a bulk medium. With the updated JETSCAPE framework, we gain the capability to incorporate hadrons generated from hard processes into a subsequent hadronic afterburner phase (SMASH). The investigation explores the impact of hadronic rescatterings on various event shape, jet observables, and particle spectra. Preliminary results will be presented, highlighting intriguing effects even in $e^++e^-$ systems.
