Ulrich Heinz studies the physics of quark-gluon plasma, an extremely hot and dense state of matter created in high-energy collisions of atomic nuclei, using theoretical and computational fluid-dynamics models. His work focuses on how this matter flows, evolves out of equilibrium, and behaves near the theorized QCD critical point, often developing simulation tools used to interpret experimental data from particle colliders.

Publication output has been fairly steady over the past decade, generally ranging between 8 and 17 papers per year, though it appears to have dropped sharply in the most recent one to two years (data for 2025-2026 may be incomplete).
