Physics perspectives with heavy ions in the HL-LHC phase and beyond
arXiv:1812.08122
Abstract
The current state of research on high-energy heavy ion physics, including its motivations and purpose is reviewed from a theorist's perspective. Possible future directions are discussed, in particular the possibility of investigating the regime of small transverse momenta in more detail and an improved interplay between experiments and dedicated theory development.
