Objective
This joint research project deals with the theoretical investigation of relativistic heavy ion (HI) reactions in close connection with current experimental programmes, with particular emphasis on the ultra-relativistic HI program at CERN. Thus the research is centered around this major joint European research activity.
The project covers a wide range of scientific issues starting from the astrophysical relevance of HI research, like Big Bang and neutron and hybrid stars, through basic questions regarding the underlying physics, such as studies of the equation of state of strongly interacting matter and the dynamics of phase transitions, to predictions and analyses of the HI experiments.
The project is a networking project since the involved research teams share common long-term goals. An extensive collaboration between these research teams on a bilateral basis already exists.
