Abstract

A review of important achievements and future prospects in high-energy heavy ion collisions at Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider and Large Hadron Collider is presented along with their implications for the physics of quark-gluon plasma from theoretical and experimental perspectives. A focus is put on the discovery of the quark-gluon plasma as a relativistic fluid, which makes it important to establish a dissipative hydrodynamic model to understand the properties of the hot medium.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Directed flow \(v_1\) is the exception because in non-central collisions, rapidity-dependent flow asymmetry is created as the expansion gets tiled from the collision axis. It is an odd function of rapidity, and should be distinguished from the one from transverse geometrical fluctuation, which would be an even function of rapidity.
