We present a concise review of the recent development of relativistic hydrodynamics and its
applications to heavy-ion collisions. Theoretical progress on the extended formulation of …

This review aims at providing an extensive discussion of modern constraints relevant for
dense and hot strongly interacting matter. It includes theoretical first-principle results from …

We present new results on the equation of state and transition line of hot and dense strongly
interacting QCD matter, obtained from a bottom-up Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton holographic …

Initial conditions for relativistic heavy-ion collisions may be far from equilibrium (ie, there are
large initial contributions from the shear-stress tensor and bulk pressure), but it is expected …

This article summarizes our present knowledge about nuclear matter at the highest energy
densities and its formation in relativistic heavy ion collisions. We review what is known about …

Like fluctuations, nondiagonal correlators of conserved charges provide a tool for the study
of chemical freeze-out in heavy ion collisions. They can be calculated in thermal equilibrium …

At top collider energies where baryon stop** is negligible, the initial state of heavy-ion
collisions is overall charge neutral and predominantly composed of gluons. Nevertheless …

In the context of the ongoing search for the QCD critical point at the Relativistic Heavy-Ion
Collider, we study the equation of state near the critical point in the temperature and baryon …

Detailed knowledge of the hadronic spectrum is still an open question, which has
phenomenological consequences on the study of heavy-ion collisions. A previous lattice …

Current experiments at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) are probing finite baryon
densities where the shear viscosity to enthalpy ratio η T/w of the quark gluon plasma …
