Abstract

The recent results on relativistic heavy-ion collisions are discussed. The most convincing quark-gluon plasma signatures at the LHC and the top RHIC energies are presented. Moreover, the possible methods of evaluating the energy threshold for deconfinement (onset of deconfinement) are described, and the corresponding results from the RHIC Beam Energy Scan and the SPS programs are shown. Additionally, the first signatures of creating dense and collectively behaving systems in collisions of small nuclei (or even in elementary interactions) are discussed. Finally, the current status of experimental search for the critical point of strongly interacting matter is summarized.
