J-PARC Heavy Ion project(J-PARC-HI) is a future fixed target experiment to study the properties of the dense matter created by the heavy ion collisions with 1-12 AGeV/c at J-PARC. The search for the QCD phase boundary and the critical end point is one of the important topics to understand the nature of QCD phase transition. It is also of interest to study the equation of state of the dense...
The main goal of the ALICE experiment is to study the physics of strongly interacting matter under extremely high temperature and energy density conditions to investigate the properties of the Quark-Gluon plasma (QGP). The enhanced production of strange hadrons with respect to non-strange particles was historically considered as one of the signatures of QGP formation during the evolution of...
According to the widely accepted picture in the heavy-ion community, the observed non-uniform distribution of particles in the final momentum space is a manifestation of the non-uniformities in the initial energy density and the collective evolution of interacting matter. Furthermore, the initial energy density profile fluctuates from one event to the other, and this event-by-event fluctuation...
Azimuthal anisotropy correlations between different Fourier harmonics, $v_2$, $v_3$, and $v_4$ measured with two-particle correlations in simulated PbPb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{_{\mathrm{NN}}}}=2.76~$TeV, generated with HYDJET++ and AMPT generator, are presented. The results are compared with data from the ATLAS experiment. Both models are in good agreement with data for $v_2$-$v_3$...
ALICE (A Large Ion Collider Experiment) is the CERN LHC experiment optimized for the study of the strongly interacting matter produced in heavy-ion collisions and for the characterization of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP).
ALICE has collected precision data at different energies for pp, p-Pb, Pb-Pb and Xe-Xe collisions: this unique set of data allows us to investigate bulk particle production...
I will speak about new approach to collectivity and thermalization problem
based on the concept of entanglement entropy.
In the NUMEN Experiment, a number of double Exchange reactions will be studied in order to get very precise measurements of their cross sections and final state levels. The interest for these reactions lies in the possibility for some nuclides, to have DCE with initial and final states identical to those of the Neutrino-less Double Beta Decay [1]. To reach a good precision in the energy...
The Large Hadron Collider at CERN along with all its experiments are in a shutdown period preparing for a large luminosity upgrade. This upgrade presents both challenges and opportunities to the experiments. For ALICE, this large increase in luminosity necessitates an upgrade in the electronics for many subsystems to cope with a much larger event rate. Additionally, the subsystems themselves...
ALICE (A Large Ion Collider Experiment) is the CERN LHC experiment optimized for the study of the strongly interacting matter produced in heavy-ion collisions, in particular the characterization of the quark-gluon plasma. After the successful operation of the experiment during the first two runs of the LHC, the ALICE collaboration is currently working on a major upgrade of its detector, to be...
The Hwa-Kardar model of self-organised criticality is studied by the renormalization group analysis. The noise in the model under consideration is quenched, i.e., Gaussian one with correlation function $\left\langle ff\right\rangle\propto\delta^{(d)} ({\bf x-x'})$, where both ${\bf x}$ and ${\bf x}'$ are spatial coordinates and no dependence on time is presented. The effects of turbulent...
We consider a few theoretical issues related to the physics of heavy-ion collisions.
The emphasis is on predictions for microscopic variables, especially spin variables, and their dependence on the overall rotation and/or acceleration of the quark-gluon medium. In case of the rotation, as a manifestation of the low viscocity the central role is played by vortices. In case of the acceleration,...
Relativistic heavy-ion collision events containing rare final states involving high transverse momentum objects provide in situ probe which allow haracterization of the hot, dense QCD matter formed in these collisions. When compared with comparable yields in proton-lead and proton-proton collisions, hadronic jets and quarkonia (both for charm and bottom quarks) are observed to have...
Inertial Confinement Fusion is a promising option to provide massive, clean, and affordable energy for humanity in the future. The present status of research and development is hindered by hydrodynamic instabilities occurring at the intense compression of the target fuel by energetic laser beams. A recent proposal Csernai et al. (2018) combines advances in two fields: detonations in...

Hadronic resonances are useful probe to study the properties of the late hadronic phase in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions. The resonances have lifetimes comparable to the time scale of the fireball, so they are sensitive to the competing...
The ALICE experiment has measured a variety of (anti-)(hyper-)nuclei produced in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$ = 5.02 TeV and at 2.76 TeV. In addition, a large sample of high-quality data was recorded in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ =5.02, 7 and 13 TeV and in p-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$ = 5.02 TeV. These data are used to study the production of (anti-)deuteron,...
Heavy flavor production is a sensitive probe of the initial gluon density
in the nucleon and is affected by the entire evolution of the collision.
Besides, it is a process which can be calculated by perturbative QCD
because of their large mass.
The PHENIX experiment at RHIC studied the heavy flavor production
for a broad momentum and rapidity ranges using its semileptonic and...
The experiments at RHIC and LHC have produced convincing evidence that strongly interacting partonic matter, Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP), is created in central ultrarelativistic collisions of heavy ions. Charm quarks are ideal probe of the QGP since they are dominantly produced in hard gluon-gluon interactions in early stages of nuclear collisions at RHIC energies. Therefore, they are sensitive...
Study of the dynamics of hadron formation explores the connection between properties of QCD field and a number of observables ranging from inclusive
distributions through correlations to the mass spectra of hadrons.
It is shown how dedicated measurements constrain the hadronization model, typically by combination of several observables. The choice of observables and their sensitivity to the...
Understanding the energy loss of partons traversing the strongly interacting matter created in heavy ion collisions is one of key goals of the heavy ion physics program. After a brief introduction to the field and explaining connections of heavy ion physics and high-energy QCD physics, we present results of phenomenological analyses of various recent jet quenching data. The core of the model...
The exploration of the QCD phase diagram has been one of the main drivers of contemporary nuclear physics. Heavy-ion collisions provide a powerful tool to explore phase structures of strongly interacting hot and dense nuclear matter called Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP).
The Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) is uniquely suited to map the QCD phase diagram by varying the energy of...
