Moving boundary effects in Quark Gluon Plasma
نویسنده
چکیده
We analyze the known moving boundary effects in plasma and briefly review a mechanism for particle acceleration through a plasma front. We then show how this mechanism may affect particles crossing the boundary of an expanding quark gluon plasma.

Modeling 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 کاملEffects of Screening on Quark-Antiquark Cross Sections in Quark-Gluon Plasma
Lowest-order cross sections for qq̄ production and annihilation can be approximately corrected for higher-order QCD effects by using a corrective Kfactor. For energies where quark masses cannot be ignored, the K-factor is dominated by the wave function distortion arising from the initialor finalstate interaction between the quark and the antiquark. We evaluate this Kfactor for qq̄ production and ...
متن کاملDynamical screening in a quark gluon plasma
We calculate the screening potential of a fast parton moving through a quark-gluon plasma in the framework of semi-classical transport theory. We found an anisotropic potential showing a minimum in the direction of the parton velocity. Possible consequences of this potential on binary states in a quark-gluon plasma are discussed. Screening of charges in a plasma is an important collective effec...
متن کاملThe quark-gluon plasma at RHIC
I present a theory-guided review of RHIC data, arguing that they provide strong evidence for formation of a thermalized quark-gluon plasma at RHIC. Strong radial flow reflects high thermal pressure in the reaction zone. Large elliptic flow proves that the pressure builds up quickly and the system thermalizes on a very short time scale of < 1 fm/c. The observed hadron yields are consistent with ...
متن کاملDynamics of quark-gluon plasma from Field correlators
It is argued that strong dynamics in the quark-gluon plasma and bound states of quarks and gluons is mostly due to nonperturbative effects described by field correlators. The emphasis in the paper is made on two explicit calculations of these effects from the first principles – one analytic using gluelump Green’s functions and another using independent lattice data on correlators. The resulting...
