Asymptotic Models for Studying Kinetics of Formation of Compact Objects with Strong Internal Bonds

“…This exactly agrees with law (20), if to reveal the t 1 parameter there. Similarly, with 0 2 t a c ∆ =…”

On Collective Properties of Dense QCD Matter

“…Working out a quantitative description of the properties of dense strongly interacting matter produced in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions presents one of the most fascinating problems in high energy physics. The main goal of the present review is to expand an analysis of various properties of dense non-Abelian matter presented in [1] by discussing several new topics enriching our understanding of the early stages of ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions.…”

Phenomenology of collinear photon emission from quark–gluon plasma in AA collisions

“…It seems likely that the QGP formation goes via the thermalization of the collective color fields of the so-called glasma stage [1,2] formed after multiple gluon exchanges between two strongly Lorentz contracted nucleus disks. It is believed that the QGP should also reveal itself in thermal photon emission that may be important in the low and intermediate k T region [3].…”
