Heavy-ion collisions at the LHC - theory overview — •Urs Achim Wiedemann — CERN TH, Geneva, Switzerland

The standard model of ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions is based on the picture that viscous relativistic fluid dynamics can account for the time evolution of the dense QCD matter produced in the nuclear overlap area of nucleus-nucleus collisions. This transient QCD fluid attenuates the production of high momentum-transfer processes. Based on the experimental evidence supporting this picture, my talk will review the current theoretical understanding and open challenges.
