We review the progress achieved in extracting the properties of hot and dense matter from
relativistic heavy ion collisions at the relativistic heavy ion collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven …

Although seemingly disparate, high-energy nuclear physics (HENP) and machine learning
(ML) have begun to merge in the last few years, yielding interesting results. It is worthy to …

The investigation of nuclear matter under extreme conditions is one of the major research
topics of nuclear and high energy physics (a short and necessarily incomplete overview may …

The event-by-event fluctuations of suitably chosen observables in heavy ion collisions at
CERN SPS, BNL RHIC, and CERN LHC can tell us about the thermodynamic properties of …

Since the first German edition of this textbook in 1993, many extensions and corrections of
the text have been added in every further edition. For the present seventh English edition …

Die Grundidee dieses einführenden Lehrbuchs besteht darin, eine einheitliche Darstellung
von Kern-und Teilchenphysik aus experimenteller Sicht zu geben. Die Reduktion der …

We review theoretical approaches to explore the phase diagram of nuclear and quark matter
at high baryon density. We first look over the basic properties of quantum chromodynamics …

The research status of the shear viscosity of nucleonic matter is reviewed. Some methods to
calculate the shear viscosity of nucleonic matter are introduced, including mean free path …

A critical review on signatures of quark-gluon plasma (QGP) formation is given and the
current (1998) experimental status is discussed. After giving an introduction to the properties …

Boltzmann''s formula S= In [W (E)] defines the microcanonical ensemble. The usual
textbooks on statistical mechanics start with the microensemble but rather quickly switch to …
