Abstract

This chapter discusses the possibilities for employing charged particle accelerators, both under operation and under construction, in high energy physics research. The macroscopic volumes of hot plasma produced under beam irradiation open new vistas for studying matter under extreme conditions. We enlarge on the investigations into the properties of matter in relativistic nuclear collisions and consider the physical effects in the generation of quark-gluon plasmas, which emerge in the deconfinement of quarks, including viscosity and interparticle interactions. In the last section we consider the ongoing and projected high energy density physics experiments on the most powerful modern accelerators.
