POETIC TOUCH
According to legend, Erice, son of Venus and Neptune, founded a smalltown on top of a mountain (750 metres above sea level) more than three thousandyears ago. The founder of modern history — i.e. the recording of events in amethodic and chronological sequence as they really happened without referenceto mythical causes — the great Thucydides (~500 B.C.), writing about eventsconnected with the conquest of Troy (1183 B.C.) said: «After the fall of Troy someTrojans on their escape from the Achaei arrived in Sicily by boat and as they settlednear the border with the Sicanians all together they were named Elymi: their townswere Segesta and Erice.» This inspired Virgil to describe the arrival of the Trojanroyal family in Erice and the burial of Anchises, by his son Aeneas, on the coastbelow Erice. Homer (~1000 B.C.), Theocritus (~300 B.C.), Polybius (~200 B.C.),Virgil (~50 B.C.), Horace (~20 B.C.), and others have celebrated this magnificentspot in Sicily in their poems. During seven centuries (XIII-XIX) the town of Ericewas under the leadership of a local oligarchy, whose wisdom assured a long periodof cultural development and economic prosperity which in turn gave rise to themany churches, monasteries and private palaces which you see today.
In Erice you can admire the Castle of Venus, the Cyclopean Walls (~800B.C.) and the Gothic Cathedral (~1300 A.D.). Erice is at present a mixture ofancient and medieval architecture. Other masterpieces of ancient civilization areto be found in the neighbourhood: at Motya (Phoenician), Segesta (Elymian), andSelinunte (Greek). On the Aegadian Islands — theatre of the decisive naval battleof the first Punic War (264-241 B.C.) — suggestive neolithic and paleolithic vestigesare still visible: the grottoes of Favignana, the carvings and murals of Levanzo.
Splendid beaches are to be found at San Vito Lo Capo, Scopello, andCornino, and a wild and rocky coast around Monte Cofano: all at less than onehour’s drive from Erice.

RHIC, the higher energy jets available at the LHC wouldtravel further through the plasma before completelydissipating their energy, but the ATLAS measurementsshowed that the stopping distance for a jet is compa-rable to the radius of lead nuclei used in the collisions.(The deposited energy/momentum goes into a shock orsound wave [7, 8], which still has to propagate for sometime, until the final freeze-out, when it turns into theobserved hadrons.) One theory that could explain thissurprising result is a strong coupling theory called theAdS/CFT correspondence, a spin-off from string theorythat relates the strong-coupling limit of quarks and glu-ons to a theory of gravity in a higher dimension. In theAdS/CFT picture, the equilibration of the quark-gluonplasma is connected to the production of a black hole,and jet quenching can be mapped to falling into thisblack hole (for reviews, see, e.g., Refs. [9, 10]). Predic-tions based on this theory suggest that the stopping dis-tance of a jet varies as E1/3⇥ /T
4/3 [6], which means thatat the LHC, a jet with E⇥ = 100 GeV stops at the samedistance as a 35 GeV jet at RHIC—similar to what AT-LAS observed. Collectively, these results from ALICEand ATLAS are providing new evidence that the quark-gluon plasma produced at the LHC is still strongly cou-
pled. After just three weeks of the LHC run with heavyions, we are witnessing a very exciting start of this newera.

In November, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) atCERN began its first heavy-ion run, producing lead-leadcollisions with the highest center of mass energy everachieved. Now, a pair of papers appearing in PhysicalReview Letters, from the ALICE [1] and ATLAS [2] exper-iments at the LHC, presents a first glimpse of what newinformation these high-energy collisions will offer aboutthe quark-gluon plasma—the state of matter believed tohave filled the universe at the time of the Big Bang. TheALICE results strongly indicate that the quark-gluonplasma remains a nearly ideal liquid, as seen earlier atthe Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC), even at sig-nificantly higher energies. Complementing this work,the ATLAS team has shown that even very high energyjets of particles emitted from the collision lose a largefraction of their energy into the quark-gluon plasma(and are sometimes completely dissipated), a sign thatthe quarks and gluons are strongly interacting with thehotter plasma.
The quark-gluon plasma (QGP) is the extreme stateof matter that occurs above a critical temperature Tc ⇥170 MeV (2 trillion degrees Kelvin). Unlike the world welive in, where quarks and gluons are not free, but boundinto nucleons, the QGP can be viewed as a plasma con-sisting of quarks and gluons that interact via Coulom-bic forces. (The “color” charge of quarks and gluonsdetermines the strength of the strong force in the sameway that electric charge determines the strength of theelectromagnetic force.) Laboratory collider experimentsseek to understand the strength of these forces and theireffect on the properties of the QGP.
Prior to experiments in 2000 at Brookhaven NationalLaboratory’s RHIC facility, the main question was how
best to study the thermodynamics and kinetics of thequark-gluon plasma. In particular, knowing the meanfree path of particles in the plasma was important be-cause it determined whether the QGP behaved as a liq-uid or a gas. The RHIC experiments essentially an-swered these questions by observing the explosion (the“Little Bang”) created in the collision of high-energygold ions. The experiments showed that the resultingplasma could be excellently described by a hydrody-namic picture of a nearly ideal liquid, in which particleshad a mean free path that was effectively zero.
The detectors at RHIC and the LHC capture the dy-namics of the explosion by measuring the symmetry ofthe subsequent flow of particles: the radial flow (⇥0),the elliptic flow (⇥2), the triangular flow (⇥3), and so on.(These are actually the Fourier components of the flow,projected onto the harmonics ⇤cos(n�)⌅, where � is theangle that wraps around the line of collision). The com-ponents depend on the impact parameter (that is, how“head on” the colliding nuclei are), the particle types,and their transverse momenta.
At RHIC, measuring how these flow componentsvary with different experimental conditions providedinformation about matter in a temperature range be-tween 0.5Tc and 2Tc. The LHC has a higher collisionenergy than RHIC and is therefore expected to producehotter matter. Showing that this is indeed the case, acompanion paper from ALICE provides the first mea-surement of the density of charged particles producedin the collisions [3]. ALICE determined the number ofcharged particles, or “multiplicity” of a collision, as afunction of the “pseudorapidity”—a measure of the an-gle of particle trajectories with respect to the line of col-

viscosity (η/s)QGP = 24π =0.16 if MC-KLN initial conditions are used. So far the data yield no evidence for a changeof (η/s)QGP between RHIC and LHC that would reflect the different temperature ranges probed. Overall, the QGPliquid created in heavy-ion collisions at the LHC appears to be as strongly coupled as at RHIC energies.

• assuming that only correlations with the symmetry plane are present - not a very good assumption (jets, resonances, etc)!

The v3 with respect to the reaction plane determined in the ZDC and with the v2 participant plane is consistent with zero as expected if v3 is due to fluctuations of the initial eccentricity
The v3{2} is about two times larger than v3{4} which is also consistent with expectations based on initial eccentricity fluctuations centrality percentile

The 5 particle cumulants allow us to cleanly measure if there is a correlations between the various planes
Conclusions• Elliptic flow measurements provided strong constraints on the bulk properties of hot
and dense matter produced at RHIC and LHC energies and have led to the new paradigm of the QGP as the so called perfect liquid
• At the LHC we observe even stronger flow than at RHIC which is expected for almost perfect fluid behavior
• viscous hydro calculations fail to describe proton v2 while hybrid models do a much better job
• does this hadronic contribution also explain the v2 of the phi meson and multi-strange baryons?
• At the LHC KET scaling is broken (but was it ever a well founded scaling?)• v2 fluctuations are in qualitative agreement with expectations from Glauber models
and rather independent of η and pt
• The measurements of v3 and higher vn’s at RHIC and at the LHC indicate that these flow coefficients behave as expected from a created system which has a small η/s
• The fluctuations can be used to do “event shape engineering” which provides new ways to compare to models
