The LHC is a GlueBall factory - probing a novel form of pure gauge matter from the early universe to cosmic rays (Seniors)
- Horst Stöcker (FIAS & GSI)
11:30 - 12:30
Pure SU_c Lattice Gauge Theory, LGT, predicts a strong first order phase transition ‎from a deconfined glue plasma to a confined GlueBall fluid, at a critical temperature of T_c=270 MeV. QCD-transport calculations show that such pure gauge matter can be created for a fleeting moment in high multiplicity pp, pA and AA collisions at the LHC at CERN and at RHiC at BNL. Pure gauge matter is also predicted to be formed in Air Showers of UHE Cosmic Rays - this novel phase of matter may also have existed briefly during the big bang. ‎Experimental observables which pin down the properties of this new form of pure gauge matter are discussed.

15:00 - 18:00
This is the *optional* excursion. We are going to the mountains with an about 15 minutes bus trip. Up there we visit an astronomical observatory. The fee is already included in the conference fee, and it is 10€ for each accompanying person. The registration for that event was included in the registration form at indico.
