Title: RHIC AND THE PURSUIT OF THE QUARK-GLUON PLASMA.

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/789787· OSTI ID:789787

There is a fugitive on the loose. Its name is Quark-Gluon Plasma, alias the QGP. The QGP is a known informant with knowledge about the fundamental building blocks of nature that we wish to extract. This briefing will outline the status of the pursuit of the elusive QGP. We will cover what makes the QGP tick, its modus operandi, details on how we plan to hunt the fugitive down, and our level of success thus far.
