Physics of high-energy heavy ion collisions François Arleo, Laboratoire Leprince-Ringuet, CNRS & École polytechnique

I will cover in this course the most important aspects in the field of heavy ion physics, with emphasis on the latest experimental results from the CERN LHC and the associate phenomenology. 

  • De/confinement in QCD
    • QCD phase diagram
    • Thermodynamics of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP)
  • Hunting for the plasma: experimental facilities
  • Looking for collectivity
    • Basics of relativistic hydrodynamics, Bjorken model
    • Soft particle production, anisotropies
    • Small systems
  • Hard QCD processes in heavy ion collisions
    • Elements of the Glauber model
    • Jet quenching phenomena
    • Quarkonium melting
    • Benchmark electroweak observables
  • Aspects of proton-nucleus collisions
    • Parton distribution functions in nuclei and QCD saturation
    • Energy loss processes in nuclear matter
  • Outlook: future facilities


A short bibliography will soon be provided.
