Offer Description

The project „Facets of rotating quark-gluon plasma” (FORQ) aims to extend our understanding of the phenomenology of the rotating quark-gluon plasma (QGP) formed in relativistic heavy ion collisions by addressing the following open questions: The Phase diagram of rotating QGP (O1); Gravitational analogies of heavy-ion collisions (O2); Spin polarization (O3); Physics of Euclidean rotation (O4).

Within this project we re-organise the selection process for a Postdoctoral researcher to occupy the position numbered P4 in the Job title list. Candidates who already applied in our previous call will be automatically considered also for this call!

         * A1.3 (Signatures of the inhomogeneous phase in the diphoton and dilepton spectra)

         * A2.3 (Emission rates for diphotons and dileptons, and thermal hadronic yields)

         * A4.3 (Physical systems that host ninionic excitations)

         * A4.4 (Stability of ninionic systems)
