The Quest for a Quark-Gluon Plasma
Abstract
Abstract An extended summary of the field can be found in large books and reviews, e.g., my take in Ref. [1]. It is hard to compress its 600+ pages and 50+ years of research to a few given below. Those include only recollection of few episodes, from early days to now, showing how vague dreams were eventually turning into solid and detailed scientific facts.
Fields of Study & Subjects
High-Energy Particle Collisions Research
