Abstract

We present an informal discussion of some aspects of strong interactions under extreme conditions of temperature and density at an elementary level. This summarizes lectures delivered at the 2018 European School of High-Energy Physics and previously at CERN Physics Schools in Latin-America, and is aimed at students working in experimental high-energy physics
