Phenomenology of Heavy Ion Collisions at RHIC and the LHC (HICATLHC)
Start date: Sep 17, 2014, End date: Sep 16, 2016 PROJECT  FINISHED 

Relativistic heavy-ion collisions probe the fundamental structure and behaviorof matter at the highest temperatures ever achieved. Results from theRelativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) have demonstrated the creation ofa strongly interacting, deconfined Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP). New data, especiallyfrom higher-energy collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) will soonprovide an opportunity to quantify properties of the QGP medium, as wellas to characterize the non-equilibrium dynamics of the early stages of a collision.It is proposed to use state-of-the-art phenomenological tools to extract suchprecise quantitative information from these new experimental data.
