Probing the shape of the quark-gluon plasma droplet via event-by-event QGP tomography

This study investigates Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) in heavy-ion collisions through two avenues: high-p⊥ frameworks and hydrodynamic modeling. Using the TRENTo model, we find that IP-Glasma mimicking $p=0$ value aligns well with high-p⊥ data, in agreement with Bayesian analysis of the low-p⊥ regime. While adjusting p values may improve a fit to a particular high-p⊥ observable, it does not permit an earlier onset of transverse expansion.
