Prof. Alexander Sorin (Joint Institute for Nuclear Research, Dubna)09/03/2016, 08:30The Nuclotron-based Ion Collider fAcility (NICA) project is now under active realization at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR, Dubna). The main goal of the project is an experimental study of hot and dense strongly interacting matter in heavy ion (up to Au) collisions at centre-of-mass energies up to 11 GeV per nucleon. Two modes of the operation are foreseen, collider mode and...Go to contribution page

Diana Nicmorus (Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research)09/03/2016, 09:00The new international accelerator facility FAIR under construction in Darmstadt aims at studying matter at atomic, nuclear, and hadronic levels. I will discuss recent developments and several aspects of the current status of the Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research. I will present the focus of the experimental programmes - hadron physics, nuclear structure and compressed nuclear matter...Go to contribution page

Matthew Wing (UCL)09/03/2016, 09:30A combination is presented of all inclusive deep inelastic cross sections previously published by the H1 and ZEUS collaborations at HERA for neutral and charged current ep scattering for zero beam polarisation. The data were taken at proton beam energies of 920, 820, 575 and 460 GeV and an electron beam energy of 27.5 GeV. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of about 1 fb$^{−1}$...Go to contribution page

Andre Mischke (Universiteit Utrecht)09/03/2016, 10:30Strongly interacting matter at high densities and temperatures can be created in high-energy collisions of heavy atomic nuclei. Heavy quarks (charm and beauty) provide particular good probes to study this so-called Quark-Gluon Plasma state and its evolution since they are predominately produced in initial hard partonic scattering processes in the early stages of the collision and thus Since...Go to contribution page

Wojciech Florkowski (Institute of nuclear Physics, Krakow)09/03/2016, 11:05We study kinetic properties of a plasma consisting of gluons whose infrared dynamics is improved by the Gribov-Zwanziger quantization. This approach includes essential features of color confinement which set the plasma apart from conventional quasiparticle systems in several aspects. Our study focusses on a boost-invariant expansion for in and out of equilibrium configurations, which at...Go to contribution page

Liliana Apolinario (Instituto Superior Tecnico (PT))09/03/2016, 11:35In this talk, I will review the latest breakthroughs on the description of jet quenching phenomena, name given to the collection of modifications that a hard probe undergoes when travelling through a hot and dense medium, such as the quark-gluon plasma. Among the several probes, jets - collection of collimated particles - are one of the most promising tools. They provide us (i) with a unique...Go to contribution page

Viktor Begun (UJK)09/03/2016, 12:05New results of the NA61/SHINE Collaboration at the CERN SPS on mean hadron multiplicities in proton-proton (p+p) interactions are analyzed within the transport models and the hadron resonance gas (HRG) statistical model. The chemical freeze-out parameters in p+p interactions and central Pb+Pb (or Au+Au) collisions are found and compared with each other in the range of the center of mass energy...Go to contribution page
