Factoid

The blobs of quark gluon plasma created in experiments are 0.000 000 000 000 01 metres in size. The total amount of energy in one of these blobs can drive a 100 Watt light bulb for about 10 micro second. Coincidentally, this was the age of the universe when it was full of the quark gluon plasma.

Meetings

Lattice 2017 will be held in Granada, Spain on 19--24 June, 2017. A complete list of meetings held in TIFR is available.
