The XVIII International Conference on Strangeness in Quark Matter (SQM 2019)

This book focuses on new experimental and theoretical advances concerning the role of strange and heavy-flavour quarks in high-energy heavy-ion collisions and in astrophysical phenomena.
The topics covered include
¿ Strangeness and heavy-quark production in nuclear collisions and hadronic interactions, ¿ Hadron resonances in the strongly-coupled partonic and hadronic medium, ¿ Bulk matter phenomena associated with strange and heavy quarks, ¿ QCD phase structure, ¿ Collectivity in small systems, ¿ Strangeness in astrophysics,¿ Open questions and new developments.
