Searching for Superhorizon Fluctuations in Heavy-Ion Col- lisions

نویسنده

  • Paul Sorensen
چکیده

In this talk I discuss novel explanations for the azimuthal correlations observed in heavy-ion collisions. I review some ideas about correlations and the evolution of heavy-ion collisions. Some aspects of the correlations observed in heavy-ion collisions may be indicitive of the suppression of superhorizon fluctuations.

Single-event Handbury-brown-twiss Interferometry

Received (received date) Revised (revised date) Large spatial density fluctuations in high-energy heavy-ion collisions can come from many sources: initial transverse density fluctuations, non-central collisions, phase transitions , surface tension, and fragmentations. The common presence of some of these sources in high-energy heavy-ion collisions suggests that large scale density fluctuations ...

Cross Section Fluctuations and Chaoticity in Heavy–ion Dynamics Cross Section Fluctuations and Chaoticity in Heavy–ion Dynamics

Cross section fluctuations in nuclear scattering are briefly reviewed in order to show the main important features. Then chaotic scattering is introduced by means of a very simple model. It is shown that chaoticity produces the same kind of irregular fluctuations observed in light heavy–ion collisions. The transition from order to chaos allows a new general framework for a deeper understanding ...

2 00 2 Event - by - event fluctuations in heavy ion collisions

We discuss the physics underlying event-by-event fluctuations in rel-ativistic heavy ion collisions. We will argue that the fluctuations of the ratio of positively over negatively charged particles may serve as a unique signature for the Quark Gluon Plasma.

Study of Event-by-event Fluctuations in Heavy Ion Collisions

We propose Kolmogorov-Smirnov test as a means for recognising event-by-event fluctuations of rapidity distributions in relativistic heavy ion collisions. Such fluctuations may be induced by the spinodal decomposition of the rapidly expanding system during the 1st order quark-hadron phase transition.

A hemispherical power asymmetry from inflation

Measurements of cosmic microwave background temperature fluctuations by the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe indicate that the fluctuation amplitude in one half of the sky differs from the amplitude in the other half. We show that such an asymmetry cannot be generated during single-field slow-roll inflation without violating constraints to the homogeneity of the Universe. In contrast, a mul...
