Description du livre
This book focuses on new experimental and theoretical advances concerning the role of strange and heavy-flavour quarks in high-energy heavy-ion collisions and in astrophysical phenomena.
The topics covered include
• Strangeness and heavy-quark production in nuclear collisions and hadronic interactions,
• Hadron resonances in the strongly-coupled partonic and hadronic medium,
• Bulk matter phenomena associated with strange and heavy quarks,
• QCD phase structure,
• Collectivity in small systems,
• Strangeness in astrophysics,
• Open questions and new developments.
