The egg of excellence: modeling of heavy-ion collisions

Recently University of Wrocław established the Incubator of Scientific Excellence - Centre for Simulations of Superdense Fluids, as part of the Faculty of Physics and Astronomy. In this talk I will describe the scientific mission of the Incubator: modeling of the evolution of strongly interacting matter formed in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions, and what we have learned of the properties of such matter so far.
