The first phase of the RHIC Beam Energy Scan program (BES-I)
has revealed intriguing trends in observables as a function of
collision energy in the region $\sqrt{s_{NN}}\sim7-30$ GeV.
These include directed flow and global polarization measurements,
which require an accurate determination of the first-order event
plane. They also include measurement of higher-order moments of
the net-proton...

The main features of the femtoscopy measurements at top RHIC and LHC energies are considered as a manifestation of strong collective flow and are well interpreted within hydrodynamic models employing equation of
state (EoS) with a crossover type transition between Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) and hadron gas phases. The femtoscopy at lower energies was intensively studied at AGS and SPS...

57. Event-by-event fluctuation analyses in view of the ALICE TPC Upgrade

By measuring event-by-event fluctuations over an ensemble of events via cumulants or moments of particle multiplicity distributions, one can study the freeze-out conditions in heavy-ion collisions and clarify their relation to the QCD phase transition. Higher order cumulants of fluctuations of conserved quantities like electric charge and baryon number are related to thermodynamic...
