BES-Tea Seminar
This online seminar series aims at increasing interactions, stimulating collaboration, and fostering initiatives on research topics related to studying the nuclear matter equation of state and the QCD phase diagram through relativistic heavy-ion collisions. The meetings are likely to be of interest to researchers working on subjects related to numerous experimental efforts worldwide, including the Beam Energy Scan program at RHIC, the HADES experiment at GSI, and future experiments at FAIR and FRIB.
In the academic year 2023-24, the meetings will take place every other Tuesday at 3 pm ET = 12 pm PT.
Please send an email to one of the organizers (Grégoire Pihan, Chun Shen, Mayank Singh, Agnieszka Sorensen) if you want to join the mailing list.
