The Mesozoic ERA of Relativistic Heavy Ion Physics and Beyond [PDF]
In order to understand how matter 15 billion years ago in the form of quarks, gluons and leptons at a temperature of 2 × 1012 °K evolved to become today’s Universe, the goal of relativistic and ultra-relativistic heavy ion physics is to understand the equation of state of nuclear, hadronic and partonic matter.

Ultra-Relativistic Heavy Ion Nuclear Physics [PDF]
This report describes an on-going research initiative for the University of Arkansas at Little Rock (UALR): investigating the physics of ultra-relativistic heavy ions, i.e. collisions between massive nuclei which have been accelerated to kinetic energies so large that the rest mass of the ions is a negligible fraction of their total mass-energy.

Relativistic heavy ion physics: An experimental review
A review of relativistic heavy ion physics is given, with emphasis on selected interesting results. The charged particle multiplicity is compared from measurements at the AGS, SPS, and RHIC. Collective motion due to a build-up of pressure is discussed, with implications on estimates of the energy density of the produced medium.

RELATIVISTIC HEAVY ION PHYSICS [PDF]
The main objective of the study of nuclear physics is pointed out to be the study of nuclear properties under conditions far from normal nuclear densities and excitations. Another objective in relativistic heavy ion physics is to study conventional nuclear properties such as the limits of nuclear stability, ground state correlations, and the excitation

Relativistic heavy ion physics: a theoretical overview
This is a mini-review of recent theoretical work in the field of relativistic heavy ion physics. The following topics are discussed: initial conditions and the Color Glass Condensate; approach to thermalization and the hydrodynamical evolution; hard probes and the properties of the Quark-Gluon Plasma.

The RHIC-STAR (Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider-Solenoid Tracker at RHIC) experiments have measured the cumulants of net-proton (a proxy for net-baryon), net-charge, and net-kaon (proxy of net-strangeness) multiplicity distributions in Au+Au collisions at
