The first (pilot) workshop on Relativistic Heavy-Ion physics will be held in Central China Normal University, Wuhan, China on October 19 - 20, 2016.
Heavy-Ion physics investigates the properties of the strongly coupled matter created in Relativistic heavy-ion collisions at RHIC in Brookhaven and LHC in CERN, known as the quark-gluon plasma (QGP). The workshop will discuss recent developments in theoretical, phenomenological and experimental studies of this new hot-dense medium. Topics of interest includes:
- Jets, its production and modification in QGP
- Correlations and Fluctuations
- Bulk properties and transport models
- Quenching and transverse momentum broadening
- QCD theory
