7th International Conference on New Frontiers in Physics (ICNFP2018)

PHENIX insights on the inner workings of the quark-gluon plasma

9 Jul 2018, 11:30

30m

Room 1

Oral presentation Mini-workshop on Correlations and Fluctuations in Relativistic Heavy Ion Collisions

Speaker

Julia Velkovska (Vanderbilt University (US))

Description

Over the lifetime of the experiment, PHENIX has accumulated a vast amount of data covering nine different collision systems at nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energies ranging from 7.7 GeV to 510 GeV. This talk will review our present understanding of how quark-gluon plasma is formed in heavy ion collisions, and how it works.
