Th is is a new observable messenger from outer space\, which does provide dir ect signals for the phase structure of strongly interacting QCD matter at high baryon density and high temperature.\n\nThose astrophysically created extremes of thermodynamics do match \, to within 20% \, the values of te mperatures which we find in relativistic hydrodynamics and transport theor y of heavy ion collisions at the existing laboratories like LHC\, SpS at C ern\, RHIC at Brookhaven\, and HaDes - SiS18 at GSi and at the NICA and FA IR accelerators under construction\, if though at quite different rapidity windows\, impact parameters and bombarding energies of the heavy nuclear systems.\n\nWe demonstrate how the gravitational wave signals from future advanced LIGO-Virgo - to radiowave signals from SKA-events can be combined with the high multiplicity fluctuation - and flow measurements in heavy i on detectors in the lab to pin down the EoS and the phase structure of den se matter.\n\nhttps://indico.tlabs.ac.za/event/75/contributions/1175/ LOCATION:Casa do Sol URL:https://indico.tlabs.ac.za/event/75/contributions/1175/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Recent ALICE results on jets and photons DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20181205T154500Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20181205T163000Z DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260611T013333Z UID:indico-contribution-254-1153@indico.tlabs.ac.za DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Thomas Peitzmann (Utrecht University/Nikhef)\nThe AL ICE experiment at the LHC is dedicated to measurements of high-energy nucl eus-nucleus collisions to study strongly interacting matter under conditio ns of extreme density and temperature\, where the creation of a quark-gluo n plasma state of matter is expected. It also performs measurements in pro ton-proton and proton-nucleus to provide reference measurement for the und erstanding of the initial state and possible modifications in cold nuclear matter\, as well as to understand the onset of collective phenomena.\nThi s talk will present recent results of the ALICE experiment on hard (high Q 2) and electromagnetic probes. More specifically\, the jet yield\, hadron- jet correlations\, and the shape and substructure of jets in pp and Pb-Pb will be discussed. Furthermore\, the measurement of the direct photon yiel d in pp and p-A collisions and the final results of direct photon elliptic flow in Pb-Pb collisions at 2.76 TeV will be presented. These observables yield information on in-medium parton-energy loss and parton shower modif ications\, and on thermal electromagnetic radiation\, and by this constrai n the dynamics of the system and its transport properties.\n\nhttps://indi co.tlabs.ac.za/event/75/contributions/1153/ LOCATION:Casa do Sol URL:https://indico.tlabs.ac.za/event/75/contributions/1153/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
