Simulations Reveal New Force in Quark-Gluon Plasma Dynamics

New simulations indicate that extreme acceleration develops along the edges of quark-gluon plasma, the universe's hottest fluid formed during high-speed atomic nuclei collisions. This previously unobserved force may significantly influence the fluid's expansion, temperature-like behavior, particle spins, and matter transitions. The findings offer crucial insights into the conditions of the early universe and fundamental physics.
