Understanding the fundamentals of QGP could help understand the formation of hadrons – protons and neutrons that make up atomic nuclei.Scientists can track the trajectories of particles emerging from heavy-ion collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider using the STAR detector.
Neutron stars, the densest objects known in the universe, are considered to have the strongest magnetic fields, measuring 1014 gauss. On the other hand, the magnetic field around our planet that protects us from cosmic radiation and particles emitted by the Sun is a mere 0.5 Gauss.
“We wanted to see if the charged particles generated in off-center heavy ion collisions were being deflected in a way that could only be explained by the existence of anin the tiny specks of QGP created in these collisions,” said Aihong Tang, a physicist at the Brookhaven Lab who was involved in the research.
Collisions of heavy ions generate an immensely strong electromagnetic field. Scientists investigate traces of this powerful electromagnetic field in the quark-gluon plasma , a state where quarks and gluons are liberated from the colliding protons and neutrons.
