Research Interests
The new state of matter, the strongly interacted Quark Gluon Plasma recently discovered at RHIC challenges
scientists to understand its properties. My work is related to the investigation of sQGP properties.
First of all the global properties of the newly discovered matter need to be understood. In last several years
I worked on understanding the bulk properties of the matter, such as particle and energy densities, and their
behaviour with centrality.
Another way to investigate the sQGP is by using the processes called "probes". For example, decays of short
living mesons into di-electrons offer an opportunity to test a very early stage of
the created matter, because electrons can leave the strongly interacted matter basically unaffected. I take part
in the construction of the Hadron Blind Detector which will greatly enhance the possibility to investigate
such probes with the PHENIX detector.
