From the Editors Preface: "Quark Matter 1987 was attended by about 250 scientists, representing 75 research institutions around the world - the scientific community engaged in experimental and theoretical studies of high energy nuclear collisions. The central theme of the meeting was the possibility of achieving extreme energy densities in extended systems of strongly interacting matter - with the ultimate aim of creating in the laboratory a deconfined state of matter, a state in which quarks and gluons attain the active degrees of freedom. High energy accelerator beams and...

This volume contains the Proceedings of'the International Workshop "Lattice Gauge Theory 1986," held at Brookhaven National Laboratory, September 15 - 19, 1986. The meeting was the sequel to the one held at Wuppertal in 1985, the Proceedings of which have appeared in the same Plenum series. During the past few years, a considerable number of meetings on lat tice gauge theory have been held, on both sides of the Atlantic. With our workshop, through early planning and coordination with other prospective organizers, we tried to channel this activity into one major yearly meeting. For 1986, these...

In the last hundred years, modern physics and cosmology have shown that there exist regions of the universe forever beyond our reach, hidden by truly ultimate horizons. Such regions exist in those remote parts of the universe where, from our point of view, space expands faster than the speed of light. They are found in black holes, where the gravity is strong enough to retain even light within its field of attraction. And in the realm of the very small, quarks must remain forever confined to their world of extreme density and can never be removed from it. The aim of this book is to describe...

Der 4. Juli 2012 stellt ein historisches Datum fur das Europaische Kernforschungszentrum CERN in Genf dar: die Verkundung der Entdeckung des letzten, vorhergesagten, noch fehlenden und lange gesuchten Elementarteilchens, des Higgs-Bosons. Ein Jahr spater kommen im Rahmen der Konferenz des Zentrums fur interdisziplinare Forschung (ZiF) in Bielefeld eine Vielzahl der mit dem Groprojekt am CERN verbundenen Wissenschaftler zusammen, um nicht nur uber die Entdeckung des Teilchens, sondern vor allem uber die Realisierung und Bedeutung eines derart ungeheuren Unterfangens fur solch ein...

Modern physics and cosmology reveal features of the universe that are forever out of reach: too distant, dark, dense or small to observe. This book tells of these horizons, how they shape our understanding, and what clues we have of a world beyond them.

What is the origin of the universe? What was there before the universe appeared? We are currently witnessing a second Copernican revolution: neither our Earth and Sun, nor our galaxy, nor even our universe, are the end of all things. Beyond our world, in an endless multiverse, are innumerable other universes, coming and going, like ours or different. Fourteen billion years ago, one of the many bubbles constantly appearing and vanishing in the multiverse exploded to form our universe. The energy liberated in the explosion provided the basis for all the matter our universe now contains. But...
