Abstract

Cooperation is in the field of theoretical physics of the nucleus and elementary particles. Collisions of atomic nuclei at ultra-high energy performed at the LHC aclerator at CERN, allow to produce in the laboratory the highest temperatures ever achieved, equalling those of the Universe a microsecond after the Big Bang. Recent discoveries have evidenced profound anologies between the physics of these collisions and that of the Big Bang. These discoveries have triggered new analyses of the experimental data, many still in progress. We propose to explore this new branch of heavy ion physics bringing together the theoretical and numerical expertise of the brazilian team and the expertise of the french team in the field of phenomenology.
