This award will provide partial support to enable junior scientists to attend the meeting entitled, "Hot Quarks 2016: A Workshop on the Physics of Ultrarelativistic Nucleus-Nucleus Collisions for Young Scientists," to be held in South Padre Island, TX, 11-18 September 2016. Quantum Chromo-Dynamics (QCS), the theory describing the forces acting within atomic nuclei, predicts that at sufficiently high temperatures and/or densities, matter should undergo a transition from the standard hadronic phase to a plasma of deconfined quarks and gluons (Quark Gluon Plasma, QGP). According to our cosmological models, this transition took place in the early universe at about 10 microseconds after the Big Bang. The scientific scope of this field has broadened significantly with new measurements and theoretical developments. The discussions in this workshop will include an interdisciplinary combination of concepts from elementary-particle physics, nuclear physics, QCD thermodynamics, hydrodynamics, and non-equilibrium transport theory. Attendance at the workshop will enhance the scientific communication among the junior members, particularly graduate students, postdocs and junior faculty, both from experiment and theory.

该奖项将提供部分支持，使年轻科学家能够参加题为“热夸克2016：青年科学家超相对论性核子碰撞物理学研讨会”的会议，该会议将于2016年9月11日至18日在德克萨斯州南帕诸岛举行。 量子色动学（QCS）是一种描述原子核内部作用力的理论，它预测在足够高的温度和/或密度下，物质应该经历从标准强子相到退禁闭夸克和胶子等离子体（夸克胶子等离子体，QGP）的转变。根据我们的宇宙学模型，这种转变发生在大爆炸后大约10微秒的早期宇宙中。随着新的测量和理论的发展，这一领域的科学范围大大扩大。本次研讨会的讨论将包括元素粒子物理学、核物理学、QCD热力学、流体力学和非平衡输运理论等概念的跨学科组合。参加研讨会将加强初级成员之间的科学交流，特别是研究生，博士后和初级教师，无论是从实验和理论。
