{"product_id":"a-short-course-on-relativistic-heavy-ion-collisions-9780750310611","title":"A Short Course on Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collisions","description":"This text introduces the subject of relativistic high-energy heavy-ion collisions and in particular, the subject of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP). Starting with a conceptual basis for QGP formation in heavy-ion collisions, the author then proceeds to provide a more rigorous foundation by introducing gauge theory, QCD and lattice QCD. These topics are introduced briefly but with sufficient coverage that the reader can comprehend their applications in heavy-ion collisions. Two-particle correlation (Hanbury-Brown-Twiss) method and recent advances in hydrodynamical modelling, including event-by-event hydrodynamics are also discussed, bringing the coverage up to the leading areas of current research.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Asis Kumar Chaudhuri\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e IOP Publishing Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/03\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.64lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 0.69d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780750310611\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAsis K Chaudhuri, Head, Theoretical Physics Division, Variable Energy Cyclotron Centre, Kolkata, received his initial training at the prestigious Training School, Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, Mumbai.
