15. Precision quarkonium studies using multi-purpose fixed-target experiments

Jean-Philippe Lansberg (IPN Orsay, Paris Sud U. / IN2P3-CNRS)

17/11/2012, 09:30

I will briefly review the most important quarkonium-production results at fixed-target experiments (NA50, NA60, Hera-B, E866, ...) reported in the last decade. Then I will move onto the discussion of the many quarkonium-physics opportunities offered by A multi-purpose Fixed-Target ExpeRiment (AFTER) using the proton and lead Large Hadron Collider (LHC) beams extracted by a bent crystal. With...

63. Gauge/gravity, thermalization and energy loss

Dr Wilke van der Schee (Utrecht University)

17/11/2012, 10:00

Holography provides an excellent tool to study (certain) strongly coupled gauge theories, which is especially useful if the state is very far from equilibrium. In this talk I will review current progress on thermalization, which is modelled by black hole formation, and highlight recent progress on energy loss using holography. Unfortunately I will also have to point out many caveats and...
