The first few microseconds

Article Abstract:

The universe consisted of a seething maelstrom of elementary particles known as quarks and gluons in the first 10 microseconds of the big bang, and ever since the epoch, quarks and gluons were locked up inside the protons and neutrons that make up the nuclei of atoms. Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider offers researchers a golden opportunity to observe quarks and gluons unchained from protons and neutrons in a collective, quasi-free state reminiscent of these earliest microseconds of existence.
