Seventh International Conference on Nucleus-Nucleus

Objective

The Seventh International Conference on Nucleus-Nucleus Collisions is part of a conference series with a 3-year cycle. The series started in 1982 at East Lansing (USA); subsequent meetings were held at Visby, Sweden (1985), Saint-Malo, France (1988), Kanzawa, Japan (1991), Taormina, Italy (1994) and Gatlinburg USA (1997). It is the most important international conference series on heavy-ion physics world wide, as it provides a complete overview over the development in the field of nuclear collisions from low up to the highest incident energies. The main topics covered at these conferences have been and will be - Nuclear structure at the limits of stability (nuclear structure, astrophysics, use of radioactive nuclear beams) - Heavy-ion collisions at low and medium energies (liquid-gas phase transition of nuclear matter, equation-of-state of nuclear matter hadron properties in hot and dense nuclear matter) - Nuclear reactions at ultra-relativistic energies (phase transition to the quark-gluon-plasma, extreme baryon densities.

At the upcoming conference, world-leading experts in these subfields will be invited to give an exhaustive overview over the developments in these areas and to report on the significant advances of the field within the last three years. In all research directions, tools (accelerators, detectors) have been developed to address new degrees of freedom and new regimes of energy and density. The impact of technologic advancements on the results obtained in fundamental research will discussed. A critical evaluation of the whole field of heavy ion physics and a discussion of the development potential will be essential in view of various plans to upgrade or extend existing heavy-ion facilities world wide.
