本文是根据1983年9月在中华人民共和国武汉华中师范大学召开的夸克-胶子等离子体物理专题讨论会上的11个系列讲座所作的。这些讲座于1985年11月更新出版。它们包括高温等离子体的微扰理论，以及格点规范理论计算的非微扰方法和结果。给出了禁闭-解除禁闭相变的物理模型和手征对称性破缺的模式。超相对论性核碰撞中产生夸克胶子等离子体的可能性在介绍性讲座中简要讨论。
This paper is based on a series of eleven lectures that were presented at a workshop on The Physics of the Quark-Gluon Plasma held at Hua-Zhong Normal University in Wuhan, People's Republic of China, in September 1983. The lectures were updated for publication in November 1985. They cover perturbation theory of the plasma at high temperature, as well as the nonperturbative methods and results of lattice gauge theory computations. Physical models of the confinement-deconfinement phase transition and the modes of chiral symmetry breaking are presented. The possibility that a quark-gluon plasma might be produced in ultrarelativistic nuclear collisions is briefly discussed in the introductory lecture.
