How Sticky Is Dense Nuclear Matter? (IMAGE)
Caption
Physicists modeled gold-gold collisions at different energies to probe fluid properties over a range of temperatures & baryon densities. The dashed line represents the region where ordinary nuclear matter is expected to transition to free quarks & gluons.
