Initial state fluctuations and final state correlations: Status and open questions
Andrew Adare, Matthew Luzum, Hannah Petersen
The recent appreciation of the importance of event-by-event fluctuations in relativistic heavy-ion collisions has lead to a large amount of diverse theoretical and experimental act…
Derivation of transient relativistic fluid dynamics from the Boltzmann equation for a multi-component system
G. S. Denicol, H. Niemi
We derive the non-equilibrium single-particle momentum distribution function of a hadron resonance gas. We then study the effects that this newly derived expression can have in the…
Event-by-event distributions of azimuthal asymmetries in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions
H. Niemi, G. S. Denicol, H. Holopainen +1
Relativistic dissipative fluid dynamics is a common tool to describe the space-time evolution of the strongly interacting matter created in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions.…
Breaking of factorization of two-particle correlations in hydrodynamics
Fernando G. Gardim, Frederique Grassi, Matthew Luzum +1
The system formed in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions behaves as a nearly-perfect fluid. This collective behavior is probed experimentally by two-particle azimuthal correlati…
Characterizing the hydrodynamic response to the initial conditions
Fernando G. Gardim, Frederique Grassi, Matthew Luzum +1
In hydrodynamics, the momentum distribution of particles at the end of the evolution is completely determined by initial conditions. We study quantitatively to what extent anisotro…
Extracting the shear viscosity of the quark-gluon plasma from flow in ultra-central heavy-ion collisions
Matthew Luzum, Jean-Yves Ollitrault
We propose a method for extracting the shear viscosity over entropy density ratio (eta/s) of the quark-gluon plasma from experimental data. We argue that uncertainty due to poor kn…
