Description
We study the non-equilibrium dynamics of heavy-ion
collisions from SIS to LHC energies within the Parton-Hadron-String
Dynamics (PHSD) transport approach, which incorporates explicit
partonic degrees of freedom in terms of strongly interacting
quasiparticles (quarks and gluons) in line with an equation of state
from lattice QCD as well as the dynamical hadronization and hadronic
collision dynamics in the final reaction phase.
We investigate the equilibrium properties of strongly-interacting
infinite parton-hadron matter in terms of transport coefficients,
such as shear and bulk viscosity, electric and heat conductivity at
finate temperature and quark chemical potential.
Furthermore, the 'highlights' of the latest results on electromagnetic probes
(photons and dileptons), heavy quarks and 'bulk' collective flow observables
from heavy-ion collisions will be presented.
