The Physics of the Quark-Gluon Plasma Introductory Lectures

The Physics of the Quark-Gluon Plasma Introductory Lectures / edited by Sourav Sarkar, Helmut Satz, Bikash Sinha.

The aim of this book is to offer to the next generation of young researchers a broad and largely self-contained introduction to the physics of heavy ion collisions and the quark-gluon plasma, providing material beyond that normally found in the available textbooks. For each of the main aspects - QCD...
