Quark--Gluon plasma 3 /

A review monograph on quark-gluon plasma (QGP). Different theoretical and experimental aspects of the programme to produce QGP in relativistic heavy-ion collisions are covered by experts in the field. This is the third volume in a series on the subject, and it focuses on the implications of the expe...
