3 Jim Thomas - LBL The Phase Diagram for Nuclear Matter K. Rajagopol The goal is to explore nuclear matter under extreme conditions – T > m c 2 and > 10 * 0 One of the goals of RHIC is to understand the QCD in the context of the many body problem Another goal is to discover and characterize the Quark Gluon Plasma RHIC is a place where fundamental theory and experiment can meet after many years of being apart
