International School on

Quark-Gluon Plasma
and
Heavy Ion Collisions :
past, present, future


Torino, "Luci d'artista", Nov. 2007 - Jan. 2008 (photos by Alberto Colla)


Villa Gualino, Torino, Italy

8-14 December 2008


Jointly organised by Experimentalists and Theoreticians:

W.M. Alberico

F. Becattini

G. Dellacasa

M. Nardi

L. Riccati


in view of the upcoming LHC experiments

 

The School aims to provide a general background on the theory and phenomenology of Quark Gluon Plasma  built on the expertise developed at SPS and RHIC, in view of the forthcoming LHC facility at CERN. It is suitable for undergraduate, graduate and postdoctoral students who plan to actively engage in this area of research, as well as for those who specialise in nearby fields of strong interactions and nuclear physics.
