NIC Research Group: QCD under extreme conditions   

This research group supported by Neumann Institute for Computing and the GSI in Darmstadt works jointly with members of the lattice group at GU-Frankfurt on the properties of the strong interactions under extreme conditions. In particular, the long term goal is to determine the phase diagram of QCD as a function of temperature and baryon density, as well as the properties of matter in the hadron and quark gluon plasma phases directly from numerical simulations of lattice QCD.

Projects

• QCD phase diagram at imaginary chemical potential
• Real time simulations of QCD in the classical limit
