CERN Heavy Ion Forum

The CERN Heavy Ion Forum is a series of seminars on topics relevant for high-energy heavy-ion physics.
The 1 hour talks are given in a rather informal style and are followed by a comfortable discussion period in which everybody is welcome to participate, either by raising questions or by showing recent results relevant to the topic(s) under discussion.
Besides stimulating discussions within the community of experimentalists at CERN, these talks are also intended to strengthen the interaction between theorists and experimentalists.

You are welcome to send us your suggestions for future topics and/or speakers.
For that or any other information, please contact Yiota Foka, Urs Achim Wiedemann
