Ultra High Temperature

The almost frictionless transport of very high-temperature amorphous matter that resembles colored glass condensate (possibly having much of its origin in the RHIC heavy ion collisions) in a confined annular tube with transverse corrugations is investigated using the verified transition-rate model and boundary perturbation method. We found that for certain activation volume and energy there exist possible frictionless states that might be associated with perfect fluid formation during the early expansion stage in RHIC Au+Au collisions. We also address the possible similar scenario in LHC Pb+Pb collisions considering possible perfect fluid formation in ultra-high temperature transport of amorphous matter.

Strongly Interacting

Nuclear matter is predicted to undergo a phase transition and become a plasma of quarks and gluons (QGP) at high temperature and density. Recent experimental results from high-energy heavy-ion collisions at the Relativistic Heavy-ion Collider (RHIC) indicate the production of a strongly interacting quark-gluon matter with fluid-like properties. I will discuss some expected features of QCD at high temperature and density, theoretical interpretations of experimental observations and challenges in unraveling some of the basic properties of dense matter in the strongly interacting regime.
