The predicted high sensitivity of the nuclear modification factor for K– in SIDIS due to the QCD based effect of medium-induced flavour conversion in the fragmentation function is studied at HERMES experiment. Unlike π+, π– and K+ nuclear modification factor for K– is assumed to increase at high value of Bjorken variable xB and a hadron fraction energy z. The experimental signature of this phenomenon is an enhanced K– nuclear modification factor compared with those of K+ for high xB and z range. The z spectra of nuclear attenuation ratios for charged kaons in different slices of xB extracted on Ne, Kr and Xe targets will be presented and discussed.

Abstract In this paper we present a study of in-medium jet modifications performed with JEWEL and PYTHIA 6.4, focusing on the uncertainties related to variations of the perturbative scales and nuclear parton distribution functions (PDFs) and on the impact of the initial and crossover temperature variations of the medium. The simulations are compared to LHC data for the jet spectrum and the nuclear modification factor. We assess the interplay between the choice of nuclear PDFs and different medium parameters and study the impact of nuclear PDFs and the medium on the jet structure via the Lund plane.

Centrality dependence of nuclear modification factor at high pT above 4 GeV /c is studied in nucleus–nucleus collisions at [Formula: see text]. We find that the centrality dependence of the nuclear modification factor can be factorized as a Boltzmann function F(b). Comparing our model calculation with PHENIX data, we further confirm that the high pT spectrum of particles is dominated by surface emission.

Transverse momentum distributions and nuclear modification factor of integrated charged particles yield produced in p[Formula: see text]+[Formula: see text]Pb collisions at [Formula: see text] = 5.02 TeV are investigated in mid-rapidity regions of [Formula: see text] at one event multiplicity class 0–5% in the transverse momentum range of [Formula: see text]20 GeV/c. Simulations with EPOS-1.99, EPOS-LHC and QGSJETII-04 are compared with the ALICE data. All three models are in good agreement with each other up to [Formula: see text]3 GeV/c for transverse momentum distributions but after that QGSJETII-04 overpredicts the experimental data. EPOS-LHC seems to describe the experimental data quite well as compared to the other two models. The ratios of the kaons to pions and protons to pions are also presented where again EPOS-LHC provides good agreement with the ALICE data. In case of the nuclear modification factor, for (anti) pions and (anti) kaons, the model distribution is around 1, whereas it is greater than 1 in case of (anti) protons which shows Cronin enhancement.
