Quark Gluon Plasma - Recent Advances
Nuclear Experiment
2009-11-07 v1
Abstract
While heavy ion collisions at the SPS have produced excited strongly interacting matter near the conditions for quark deconfinement, the RHIC may be the first machine capable of creating quark-antiquark plasmas sufficiently long-lived to allow deep penetration into the new phase. A comprehensive experimental program addressing this exciting physics has been put into place. Presented here are preliminary results from Au+Au at = 130 GeV obtained during the first RHIC run and some CERN SPS results from Pb+Pb at = 17 GeV (particularly relevant to QGP search).
