Stress Tensor and Bulk Viscosity in Relativistic Nuclear Collisions
Rainer J. Fries, Berndt Müller, Andreas Schäfer
We discuss the influence of different initial conditions for the stress tensor and the effect of bulk viscosity on the expansion and cooling of the fireball created in relativistic…
Dissipative effects from transport and viscous hydrodynamics
Denes Molnar, Pasi Huovinen
We compare 2->2 covariant transport theory and causal Israel-Stewart hydrodynamics in 2+1D longitudinally boost invariant geometry with RHIC-like initial conditions and a conformal…
Heavy Quark Production from Jet Conversions in a Quark-Gluon Plasma
W. Liu, R. J. Fries
Recently, it has been demonstrated that the chemical composition of jets in heavy ion collisions is significantly altered compared to jets in the vacuum. This signal can be used to…
Hadronic dissipative effects on transverse dynamics at RHIC
T. Hirano, U. W. Heinz, D. Kharzeev +2
We simulate the dynamics of Au+Au collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) with a hybrid model that treats the quark-gluon plasma macroscopically as an ideal fluid,…
Probing Nuclear Matter with Jet Conversions
W. Liu, R. J. Fries
We discuss the flavor of leading jet partons as a valuable probe of nuclear matter. We point out that the coupling of jets to nuclear matter naturally leads to an alteration of jet…
Quark and Gluon Degrees of Freedom in High-Energy Heavy Ion Collisions
Rainer J. Fries
I discuss some recent progress in our understanding of high energy nuclear collisions. I will focus on two topics which I was lucky to co-pioneer in the recent past. One is recombi…
