ATHIC 2023 — The 9th Asian Triangle Heavy-Ion Conference

ATHIC 2023 inherits the tradition of the previous conferences held first in Seoul in 2006 and continued in China, India, Japan, and South Korea. Many physicists from Asian countries have been actively working on both experimental and theoretical sides of heavy-ion collisions. ATHIC brings them together to discuss various exciting aspects of this field. We hope to have fruitful discussions among the participants and develop new ideas to press us forward in further understanding of hot and dense QCD matter. The conference will also provide an excellent opportunity to summarize what we have learned at RHIC and LHC.

Topics: Initial state and thermal equilibrium; Jets and medium response; Heavy quarks and quarkonia; Electromagnetic probes; Collective dynamics; Correlations and fluctuations; QCD phase diagram and extreme states; QGP in small systems; Intense field and vorticity; Hadron interactions and exotics; New theoretical developments; Experimental techniques and future programs
