We recently introduced new concepts, implemented in EPOS4, which allow to consistently accommodate factorization and saturation in high energy proton-proton and nucleus-nucleus collisions, in a rigorous parallel scattering framework. EPOS4 has a modular structure and in this paper, we present in detail how the "single scattering module" (the main EPOS4 building block) is related to perturbative QCD, and how these calculations are performed, with particular care being devoted to heavy flavor contributions. We discuss similarities and differences compared to the usual pQCD approach based on factorization.

  1. Disentangling Initial-State and Evolution Effects in Heavy-Ion Collisions Using EPOS and PHSD

    hep-ph 2025-09 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    By swapping initial conditions and evolution engines between EPOS and PHSD, the authors find that the dynamical evolution stage, not the initial state, dominates final hadron spectra and elliptic flow in 200 GeV Au+Au...

  2. Flow in small systems in the EPOS4 approach for high-energy scatterings

    hep-ph 2025-08 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    In the EPOS4 framework, a symmetric initial parton distribution cannot reproduce the flat elliptic flow versus multiplicity seen in high-multiplicity pp collisions, whereas a two-center 'dipole' proton shape can.
