Consider two atomic nuclei flying toward each other with almost speed of light. What happens if they collide? We create a tiny unstable droplet of the primordial matter.
This matter has nothing in common with the ordinary matter which surrounds us. It is much denser and extremely hot (temperature > 1 000 000 000 000 000 C). The field researching that is called the heavy ion collisions physics, and the matter is called quark-gluon plasma.
This is the second and the last pilot episode of the Born to science podcast and today’s guest is a professor Boris Tomasik. He develops the theory of heavy ion collisions in the Czech Technical University in Prague and the Matej Bel University in Slovakia. We will discuss what quark-gluon plasma is, how we create it and how it behaves. Enjoy!
