Research Description
I am interested in understanding strongly interacting many-body systems, in particular, the properties of nuclear matter under extreme hot and dense conditions.
The relativistic heavy-ion collisions create a novel state of matter, Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP), which exposes surprisingly strong collective behavior with very small specific shear viscosity. In order to quantitative extract the transport properties of the QGP, I work on developing a comprehensive integrated framework, which models the dynamical evolution of the heavy-ion collisions event-by-event. Combining this framework with modern statistical Bayesian analysis, we can reverse engineer the heavy-ion collision experiments and infer the properties of the hottest droplet in nature.

I'd like to work with this faculty member. What should I do next?
