CCNU IoPP student forum (theory)

Theeighthworkshop on Relativistic Heavy-Ion physics, now renamed as Iopp Student Forum will be held in Central China Normal University, Wuhan, China on January 12th, 2018.

Heavy-Ion physics investigates the properties of the strongly coupled matter created in Relativistic heavy-ion collisions at RHIC in Brookhaven and LHC in CERN, known as the quark-gluon plasma (QGP). The workshop will discuss recent developments in theoretical, phenomenological and experimental studies of this new hot-dense medium. Topics of interest includes:

• QCD at high temperature
• Baryon-rich QCD matter
• QGP in small systems
• Initial state physics and approach to thermal equilibrium
• Collective dynamics
• Correlations and fluctuations
• Jets and jet quenching
• Heavy flavour and quarkonium
• Electroweak probes
• Strongly coupled systems
• New theoretical developments
