Executive Summary :

The study aims to investigate the impact of heavy ion collisions (HIC) on the quark-gluon plasma (QGP), a key feature of matter generated after the Big Bang. The research aims to understand how the magnetic field affects the melting of charmonia, a key observable of the QGP, and the direct photon production, which estimates the temperature in the early stages after the collision. The angular distribution of these angular fields is still poorly understood.
