Multi-messenger study of QCD matter at finite baryon density in heavy-ion collisions

Location: 4138 Physics Research Building
 

Abstract: Relativistic nuclear collisions provide a powerful tool to investigate the properties of QCD matter under extreme yet controlled conditions, exploring a vast region of the QCD phase diagram. The systems produced are highly dynamic and inhomogeneous, presenting challenges to extracting their thermodynamic properties. This talk will highlight recent advancements in multistage modeling of heavy-ion collisions and their implications for understanding the thermodynamic properties of QCD matter at finite baryon density. It will also discuss the unique capabilities of electromagnetic probes in revealing the properties of this dynamic matter. By integrating information from both hadronic and electromagnetic probes, a multi-messenger approach offers a comprehensive view of the properties of the created QCD matter.
