Fluid dynamics of out of equilibrium boost invariant plasmas

Jean-Paul Blaizot, Li Yan

By solving a simple kinetic equation, in the relaxation time approximation, and for a particular set of moments of the distribution function, we establish a set of equations which,…

Bulk viscosity of strongly interacting matter in the relaxation time approximation

Alina Czajka, Sigtryggur Hauksson, Chun Shen +2

This paper presents how thermal mean field effects are incorporated consistently in the hydrodynamical modelling of heavy-ion collisions. The nonequilibrium correction to the distr…

A flow paradigm in heavy-ion collisions

Li Yan

The success of hydrodynamics in high energy heavy-ion collisions leads to a flow paradigm, to understand the observed features of harmonic flow in terms of the medium collective ex…

Comparison of heavy-ion transport simulations: Collision integral in a box

Ying-Xun Zhang, Yong-Jia Wang, Maria Colonna +27

Simulations by transport codes are indispensable to extract valuable physics information from heavy ion collisions. In order to understand the origins of discrepancies between diff…

Photon emission from quark-gluon plasma out of equilibrium

Sigtryggur Hauksson, Sangyong Jeon, Charles Gale

The photon emission from a non-equilibrium quark-gluon plasma (QGP) is analyzed. We derive an integral equation that describes photon production through quark-antiquark annihilatio…

Jet-medium interaction and conformal relativistic fluid dynamics

Li Yan, Sangyong Jeon, Charles Gale

A formalism to study the mode-by-mode response to the energy deposition of external hard partons propagating in a relativistic fluid is developed, based on a semi-analytical soluti…
