Quark Matter 2017

Quark Matter 2017 will be held in Chicago, IL, USA, 6-11 February 2017.
This is the XXVI international conference on ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions. The aim of this conference is to bring together theoretical and experimental physicists from around the world to discuss new developments in high energy heavy ion physics. The focus of the discussions is on fundamental understanding of strongly interacting matter at extreme conditions formed in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions which relates to the state of the early universe.

The scientific topics addressed by this conference are:

QCD at high temperature
Baryon-rich QCD matter
QGP in small systems
Initial state physics and approach to thermal equilibrium
Collective dynamics
Correlations and fluctuations
Jets and jet quenching
Heavy flavor and quarkonium
Electroweak probes
Strongly coupled systems
New theoretical developments
Future facilities and new instrumentation

Abstract submission deadline: 1 October 2016
