And sure, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) may one day soon be the most powerful heavy-ion collider in the world (although it will spend most of its time investigating proton to proton collisions).    From Wordnik.com.  [Astronomy Without A Telescope – Home Made Quark-Gluon Soup | Universe Today] Reference

The most powerful operational heavy-ion collider in the world, the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider RHIC recently recorded the highest ever temperature created in an Earth-based laboratory of 4 trillion Kelvin.    From Wordnik.com.  [Astronomy Without A Telescope – Home Made Quark-Gluon Soup | Universe Today] Reference

RHIC is currently the most powerful heavy-ion collider in the world, and while that title will be taken over by CERN's Large Hadron Collider later this year, RHIC will still maintain the lead in accelerating spin-polarized protons.    From Wordnik.com.  [Archive 2008-05-01] Reference

There is considerable interest in string theory among cosmologists, astrophysicists, particle phenomenologists, and heavy-ion nuclear theorists, because it acts as an “imagination stretcher” (to use a phrase first coined by Bjorken) for the fields with which it interacts.    From Wordnik.com.  [String Theory is Losing the Public Debate] Reference

A researcher might be able to think about heavy-ion particles whenever he wants, but in the corporate world, a deadline's a deadline.    From Wordnik.com.  [post-gazette.com - News] Reference

The first heavy-ion collisions occurred at RHIC in 2000, but confirming the occurence of the quark-gluon plasma in these events took several more years of data collection and analysis.    From Wordnik.com.  [PhysOrg.com - latest science and technology news stories] Reference

The heavy-ion collisions should produce subatomic regions of quark-gluon plasma, or QGP, where particles that are typically tightly bound inside protons, neutrons, etc., are more free-flowing.    From Wordnik.com.  [Cosmic Log] Reference

The JET Collaboration includes representatives from major institutions that have made significant contributions to the study of the hot, dense matter in heavy-ion collisions, often approaching the question from different points of view.    From Wordnik.com.  [PhysOrg.com - latest science and technology news stories] Reference

The debris from heavy-ion collisions indicates that free quarks and gluons recombine into hadrons (which include pions and kaons made of two quarks and protons and neutrons made of three quarks) while the plasma is cooling; this also affects how the jets propagate.    From Wordnik.com.  [PhysOrg.com - latest science and technology news stories] Reference

The theory linking jet quenching to the quark-gluon plasma in heavy-ion collisions was later developed by Xin-Nian Wang and Miklos Gyulassy; Gyulassy was with Berkeley Lab at the time and is now at Columbia University, where he is a member of the JET Collaboration.    From Wordnik.com.  [PhysOrg.com - latest science and technology news stories] Reference

"One of the main discoveries at RHIC is that the quark-gluon plasma produced in heavy-ion collisions behaves as a perfect fluid with very small viscosity," says Xin-Nian Wang, a senior scientist in the Nuclear Theory Group in Berkeley Lab's Nuclear Science Division (NSD).    From Wordnik.com.  [PhysOrg.com - latest science and technology news stories] Reference

"The current running with proton collisions has allowed us to connect with results from other experiments at lower energies, test and improve the extrapolations made for the LHC, and prepare the ground for the heavy-ion runs," said Jurgen Schukraft, spokesperson for the ALICE collaboration.    From Wordnik.com.  [YubaNet.com] Reference
