Dissipative hydrodynamics and heavy ion collisions
نویسنده
چکیده
Space-time evolution and subsequent particle production from minimally viscous (η/s=0.08) QGP fluid is studied using the 2nd order Israel-Stewart’s theory of dissipative relativistic fluid. Compared to ideal fluid, energy density or temperature evolves slowly in viscous dynamics. Particle yield at high pT is increased. Elliptic flow on the other hand decreases in viscous dynamics. Minimally viscous QGP fluid found to be consistent with a large number of experimental data.

Heavy ion collisions and cosmology
There are interesting parallels between the physics of heavy ion collisions and cosmology. Both systems are out-ofequilibrium and relativistic fluid dynamics plays an important role for their theoretical description. From a comparison one can draw interesting conclusions for both sides. For heavy ion physics it could be rewarding to attempt a theoretical description of fluid perturbations simil...
متن کاملFourier analysis of nonself-averaging quasiperiodic oscillations in the excitation functions of dissipative heavy-ion collisions: quantum chaos in dissipative heavy-ion collisions?
We employ stochastic modelling of statistical reactions with memory to study quasiperiodic oscillations in the excitation functions of dissipative heavy-ion collisions. The Fourier analysis of excitation function oscillations is presented. It suggests that S-matrix spin and parity decoherence, damping of the coherent nuclear rotation and quantum chaos are sufficient conditions to explain the no...
متن کاملS-matrix spin and parity decoherence and damping of coherent nuclear rotation: quantum chaos in dissipative heavy-ion collisions?
We extend the statistical reaction with memory approach to study off-diagonal spin and parity S-matrix energy autocorrelation in dissipative heavy-ion collisions. It is suggested that S-matrix spin and parity decoherence results in (i) damping of the coherent nuclear rotation and (ii) is a manifestation of quantum chaos in dissipative heavy-ion collisions.
متن کاملModeling Magnetic Field in Heavy ion Collisions Using Two Different Nuclear Charge Density Distributions
By studying the properties of matter during heavy-ion collisions, a better understanding of the Quark-Gluon plasma is possible. One of the main areas of this study is the calculation of the magnetic field, particularly how the values of conductivity affects this field and how the field strength changes with proper time. In matching the theoretical calculations with results obtained in lab, two diffe...
متن کاملHadron production in heavy relativistic systems
We investigate particle production in heavy-ion collisions at RHIC energies as function of incident energy, and centrality in a three-sources Relativistic Diffusion Model. Pseudorapidity distributions of produced charged hadrons in Au + Au and Cu + Cu collisions at √ sNN = 19.6 GeV, 62.4 GeV, 130 GeV and 200 GeV show an almost equilibrated midrapidity source that tends to increase in size towar...
