A comprehensive introduction to gauge/string duality and its applications to studying the properties and dynamics of quark-gluon plasma.

The book is about a variety of analytical and numerical tools that are needed to study the phase structure of particle physics.

The aim of this book is to offer to the next generation of young researchers a broad and largely self-contained introduction to the physics of heavy ion collisions and the quark-gluon plasma, providing material beyond that normally found in ...

The first three parts of the book discuss the experimental and phenomenological aspects at a level suitable for MSc students, but BSc students interested in particle physics will also find useful information there.

Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Study Institute on [title], held in Bodrum, Turkey, Sept.-Oct. 1993. Leading researchers present new material and new results with regard to hot and dense nuclear matter.

The volume provides a unique summary of twenty-five years of research activity in this area and indicates ways in which the theory can develop further. The book is fairly self-contained.

This book introduces the reader to the basic concepts of the generation and manipulation of synchrotron light, its interaction with matter, and the application of synchrotron light in the “classical” techniques, while including some of ...
