  • Research Description

    The physics of ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions. In particular, my work examines the behavior of transport coefficients in the deconfined and hadronic phases of a relativistic heavy ion reaction, and influence of non-equilibrium effects on such transport coefficients. Here is a primer for nonexperts.
