Hadrons and Quark-Gluon Plasma
This volume explores the primordial state of hadronic matter called quark-gluon plasma. It covers the ongoing search to verify the prediction experimentally and discusses the physical properties of this novel form of matter. This 2002 title has been reissued as an Open Access publication on Cambridg...
