This report provides an overview of the current state of research in elementary particle physics and high-energy physics, with a particular focus on studying exotic forms of strongly interacting matter that arise in collider experiments. It outlines the latest and upcoming experiments aimed at exploring the quantum chromodynamics phase diagram, emphasizing the search for signals of a potential phase transition between quark-gluon plasma and hadronic gas, as well as the identification of the critical point. The report underscores the need for developing theoretical models to describe heavy-ion collision processes at relativistic energies. Additionally, recent advancements in the integrated hydrodynamic model and its extension to GeV-range experiments are discussed. Several simulation results related to the search for phase transition signals in experiments at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider are also presented.
