While it is well known that there is a significant amount of conserved charges in the initial state of nuclear collisions, the production of these due to gluon splitting has yet to be thoroughly investigated. The ICCING (Initial Conserved Charges in Nuclear Geometry) algorithm reconstructs these quark distributions, providing conserved strange, baryon, and electric charges, by sampling a given model for the $g \to q q ˉ$ splitting function over the initial energy density, which is valid at top collider energies, even when $μ_{B} = 0$ . The ICCING algorithm includes fluctuations in the gluon longitudinal momenta, a structure that supports the implementation of dynamical processes, and the c++ version is now open-source. A full analysis of parameter choices on the model has been done to quantify the effect these have on the underlying physics. We find there is a sustained difference across the different charges that indicates sensitivity to hot spot geometry.

Investigating the muon catalyzed fusion in muonic lithium hydride

In this work, we consider the muonic LiH as a new stage of the

μ

catalyzed fusion. We calculate the bound states of the muonic LiH and LiH

^{+}

and their wave functions based on the three and four body approximation. In order to solve the Schr

o ¨

dinger equation, we apply the Gaussian expansion method which gives us both the eigen energies and the wave functions. The existences of the bound states in muonic LiH and LiH

^{+}

are confirmed. We find the dynamical behaviors between the

^{7}

Li and proton in muonic LiH and LiH

^{+}

are similar as the ones in dt

μ_{2}

and dt

μ

, respectively. The

α

sticking probability in the muonic LiH

^{+}

after the nuclear fusion is studied. The calculated

α

sticking probability of being captured to the ground state of He

μ

is 5 times smaller than the one in dt
