It has been theorized that if heavy nuclei (e.g. Au, Pb) are collided at sufficiently high energies, we might be to recreate the conditions that existed in the universe a few microseconds after the Big Bang. The kinetic energy of the…

Quarkonia were predicted to be suppressed in the "hot" deconfined matter known as the Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP), but they were also seen to suffer from "cold" nuclear matter effects (parton shadowing, nuclear absorption...). Both at SPS and…
The progress over the 30 years since the first high-energy heavy-ion collisions at the BNL-AGS and CERN-SPS has been truly remarkable. Rigorous experimental and theoretical studies have revealed a new state of the matter in heavy-ion…
