Description

Relativistic heavy-ion collider (RHIC) is a dedicated facility to collide heavy-ions at relativistic speed. Within first few years of its running, RHIC discovered the Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP), a hot and dense matter. After confirming the existence of QGP, experiments at RHIC now concentrate on studying the properties of QGP and understanding the phase structure of QCD. In this talk, I review selected heavy-ion results obtained recently at RHIC for studying QGP properties and advances made for the understanding of QCD phase diagram.
