The dynamics of partons and hadrons in relativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions is analyzed within the novel Parton-Hadron-String Dynamics (PHSD) transport approach, which is based on a dynamical quasiparticle model for partonic phase (DQPM) including a dynamical hadronization scheme. The PHSD model reproduces a large variety of observables from SPS to LHC energies, e.g. as quark-number...

An effective model reproducing:the equation of state of hadronic matter as obtained in lattice QCD simulations basic is constructed. The model is based on the Mott-Hagedorn resonance gas approach and extended PNJL model. All basic physical characteristics of processes encountered in the dense hadronic matter are taken into account.

High momentum particles provide the most direct probe of the pertinent physics of the quark-gluon plasma produced at RHIC and LHC. We present comparisons of the latest pQCD- and AdS/CFT-based energy loss models with the newest high momentum measurements from RHIC and LHC. In contrast to the naive success of strong coupling AdS/CFT methods in describing the very small viscosity to entropy...
