APPLICATIONS OF HIGH-TEMPERATURE FIELD THEORY TO HEAVY-ION COLLISIONS
Markus H. Thoma
Abstract
A recent development in finite temperature field theory, the so-called Braaten-Pisarski method, and its application to properties of a quark-gluon plasma, possibly formed in relativistic heavy ion collisions, are reviewed. In particular parton damping rates, the energy loss of energetic partons, thermalization times, viscosity, and production and damping rates of hard photons are discussed.
