Recent experiments at RHIC and theoretical considerations indicate that the quark-gluon plasma, present in the fireball of relativistic heavy-ion collisions, might be in a liquid phase. The liquid state can be identified by characteristic…
Hard-jet correlations probe parton energy loss and the microscopic structure of the quark-gluon plasma formed in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions. The correlation of high-$p_\mathrm{T}$ jets with other jets, hadrons, or electroweak…
We review a sample of the experimental results from AGS to SPS and RHIC and their interpretations towards understanding of the Quark-Gluon Plasma. We discuss extrapolations of these results to the upcoming LHC experiments. Finally, we…
We discuss the properties of a system composed by a static plasma traversed by a jet of particles. Assuming that both the jet and the plasma can be described using a hydrodynamical approach, and in the conformal limit, we find that unstable…

We present a study of the properties of the collective modes of a system composed by a thermalized quark-gluon plasma traversed by a relativistic jet of partons. We find that when the jet traverses the system unstable gauge field modes are…
This talk at Fradkin conference is devoted to brief description of latest results in two topics I worked on during last years. The multiresolution analysis and fast wavelet transform became a standard procedure for pattern recognition and I…
RHIC data have shown robust collective flows, including recent spectacular ``conical flow'' from quenched jets: that confirms that QGP above the critical line is in a strongly coupled regime. One way to study Non-Abelian classical strongly…
The theory of gamma-ray emission from e$^{\pm}$ jets and the implications for jet formation, dynamics and structure are reviewed. In particular, possible carriers of the jet's thrust on small scales, the transition from electromagnetic to…

In this talk, I reflect on the physical origin of the strongly coupled character of the quark-gluon plasma.
A simulation study of the effects resulting from creation of quark--gluon plasma in high energy collisions of cosmic iron nuclei with the air has been carried out. The Cherenkov light emission has been found to reveal some features of the…
I discuss finite-temperature gauge theories as a framework to describe the quark-gluon plasma in the regime of high temperature where the gauge coupling is small, $g << 1$. I review recent progress in the understanding of the long-range…
We review recent progress in understanding quarkonium dynamics inside the quark-gluon plasma as an open quantum system with a focus on the definition and nonperturbative calculations of relevant transport coefficients and generalized gluon…
The status of flow in heavy-ion collisions and of inference of hadronic-matter properties is reviewed.
Understanding the properties of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) that is produced in ultra-relativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions has been one of the top priorities of the heavy ion program at the LHC. Energetic jets are produced and…
There are now several types of relativistic flows in astrophysical settings. The foremost examples are jets and disks orbiting spinning black holes, pulsar winds and gamma ray bursts. As discussed at this meeting, these flows exhibit…
We employ new field-theoretical tools to study photons and jets in a non-equilibrium quark-gluon plasma. Jet broadening and photon emission takes place through radiation which is suppressed by repeated and coherent interaction with the…
To probe the properties of the quark-gluon plasma created in heavy-ion collisions, a very useful class of observables refers to the propagation of energetic jets. A jet is a collimated spray of particles generated via successive parton…
