The azimuthal pattern of transverse energy flow in nuclear collisions at RHIC and LHC energies is considered. We show that the probability distribution of the event-by-event azimuthal disbalance in transverse energy flow is essentially…
The study of high energy nuclear collisions has entered a new stage with RHIC; it therefore seems a good time to ask what we have learned from the experimental results obtained up to now. I recall what we had expected to find when the SPS…
The novel phenomena observed in particle angular correlations are reviewed. They include the double-peak away-side azimuthal correlations in relativistic heavy-ion collisions and the long-range pseudorapidity near-side (ridge) correlations…
The latest results obtained by the LHCb collaboration from heavy-ion and fixed-target collisions recorded during the Run 2 LHC data-taking are presented. They mainly focus on heavy hadron production for varying nuclear collision systems,…
In this talk I discuss novel explanations for the azimuthal correlations observed in heavy-ion collisions. I review some ideas about correlations and the evolution of heavy-ion collisions. Some aspects of the correlations observed in…
We estimate the production rates of supersymmetric particles in central heavy-ion collisions at LHC. The parton cascade model is used to seek for possible collective phenomena which enlarge the production probability of very heavy…
Selection of recent (in March 2022) results from the heavy-ion experiment ALICE at the CERN LHC, chosen to address various stages of the nucleus-nucleus reaction.
We review the physics of nuclear matter at high energy density and the experimental search for the Quark-Gluon Plasma at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). The data obtained in the first three years of the RHIC physics program…
We investigate the space-time evolution of ultrarelativistic Au-Au collisions at full RHIC energy using a schematic model of the expansion. Assuming a thermally equilibrated system, we can adjust the essential scale parameters of this model…
Moving highly-charged ions carry strong electromagnetic fields that act as a field of photons. In collisions at large impact parameters, hadronic interactions are not possible, and the ions interact through photon-ion and photon-photon…
Contribution of a preshower photon multiplicity detector to the physics of ultra-relativistic nuclear collisions is reviewed and future possibilities at RHIC and LHC are discussed
Relativistic heavy ion collisions produce thousands of particles, and it is sometimes difficult to believe that these processes allow for a theoretical description directly in terms of the underlying theory - QCD. However once the parton…
We report results of our ongoing nonperturbative numerical study of a classical effective theory describing low-x partons in the central region of a heavy-ion collision. In particular, we give estimates of the initial transverse energies…
The hydrodynamical models used to describe the evolution of heavy-ion collisions are briefly reviewed and their results compared with recent RHIC data.
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN has been instrumental in recent advances in experimental high energy physics by colliding beams of protons and heavier nuclei at unprecedented energies. The present heavy-ion programme is based mainly…
In this talk the status and open questions of the phenomenological description of all the stages of a heavy ion reaction are highlighted. Special emphasis is put on event-by-event fluctuations and associated observables. The first part is…
The goal of the ultra-relativistic heavy ion program is to study Quantum Chromodynamics under finite temperature and density conditions. After a couple of decades of experiment, the focus at the top RHIC and the LHC energy has evolved to…
We present a review of the measurements of elliptic flow ($v_{2}$) of light nuclei ($d$,$\bar{d}$, $t$, $^{3}\rm He$, and $^{3}\overline{\rm He}$) from the RHIC and LHC experiments. Light (anti)nuclei $v_{2}$ have been compared with that of…
With the acceleration of lead nuclei in the LHC, heavy-ion physics will enter a new energy domain. One of the main novelties introduced by the 30-fold energy-jump from RHIC to the LHC is the abundant heavy-quark production. After discussing…
In this work we present a summary of the most relevant results on heavy-ion and astroparticle physics in ALICE. The summary includes a brief overview of the current status on the characterization of the hot and dense QCD medium created in…
