Research summary
AI-generated

Ming Li works in theoretical high-energy nuclear and particle physics, focusing on the behavior of gluons (force-carrying particles that bind quarks together) inside protons and atomic nuclei at very high collision energies. Much of the work develops mathematical frameworks—such as gluon saturation and small-x physics—to predict outcomes of particle collision experiments like deep inelastic scattering and proton-nucleus collisions. This is theoretical/computational research aimed at interpreting and predicting data from particle accelerator experiments.
