285450 Heavy ion physics (V) (SoSe 2023)
Contents, comment
-
This lecture will be treating the physics of the Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP), the hottest state of matter in the Universe. We will explore its properties through the lens of the theory, phenomenology and experiment of Heavy-Ion Collisions.
Contents
-Introduction
-Basics of Heavy-Ion collisions: Tools, variables and Observables.
-Thermodynamics of the Quark Gluon Plasma
-Space-time Evolution and Modelling of Heavy-Ion Collisions.
-- Introduction to Kinetic Theory
-- Introduction to Kolmogorov's turbulence
-- Introduction to Hydrodynamics
-- Hadronization Models
-Polarization in HICs: Chiral Phenomena.
-Hard Scattering, Jets and Jet Quenching
-Photons and electron pairs: penetrating probes.
-Correlations and Femtoscopy
Requirements for participation, required level
-
The lecture lies at the Masters/Last year Bachelors level. The lecture will focus on creating an intuitive picture of active and diverse area of research. It will not focus on detailed computations, but requires concepts from classical, statistical and quantum mechanics.

The binding module descriptions contain further information, including specifications on the "types of assignments" students need to complete. In cases where a module description mentions more than one kind of assignment, the respective member of the teaching staff will decide which task(s) they assign the students.
The lecture will not have an exam. The evaluation will be two-fold. The student will be required to give a 10 minutes presentation of a relevant paper on the area (a list of possible articles will be given on the first lecture, and students can choose between the possibilities). Additionally, the lecture will have exercise sheets to be solved and delivered the week after. The student will need to present in the board 2 of the exercises.
