Title: Study of strongly-coupled QCD matter with the ATLAS detector at
the LHC

Speaker: Prof. Jiangyong Jia (贾江涌) from Stony Brook University and
Brookhaven National Lab.

Abstract:
High-energy proton-proton, proton-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus collisions
create an extended and strongly-coupled partonic matter, whose
properties and dynamics are controlled by QCD in or near the
non-perturbative regime. Since 2010, the ATLAS detector at LHC provides
opportunities to create and study this matter using multiple probes and
different collision systems. After a brief overview of the ATLAS
heavy-ion program, I will discuss some surprising results, obtained by
my group, on the long-range, multi-parton dynamics emerging from this
strong-coupled QCD matter.
