This course introduces the relativistic heavy-ion collision from Lattice Field Theory.
Lattice Field Theory is a powerful tool for studying non-perturbative phenomena in Quantum Field Theory, and it has been used extensively in particle physics and condensed matter physics. Quantum Field Theory describes the interaction among fundamental particles. Putting quantum fields on a lattice allows the numerical study of particle physics. This course starts by introducing the basic numerical methods used in lattice field theory, as this will be crucial for students to understand to carry out their simulations. This course also covers the necessary knowledge of scalar and fermion field theories, which are fundamental building blocks for more complex models. This course is a valuable resource for graduate students who are interested in studying non-perturbative methods and their applications in relativistic heavy-ion collisions.
