Eccentricity fluctuation effects on elliptic flow in relativistic heavy ion collisions

Tetsufumi Hirano, Yasushi Nara

We study effects of eccentricity fluctuations on the elliptic flow coefficient v_2 at mid-rapidity in both Au+Au and Cu+Cu collisions at sqrt{s_NN}=200 GeV by using a hybrid model…

Search for a Ridge Structure Origin with Shower Broadening and Jet Quenching

R. Mizukawa, T. Hirano, M. Isse +2

We investigate the role of jet and shower parton broadening by the strong colour field in the - correlation of high particles. When anisotropic momentum broadening ($…

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,…

Mass ordering of differential elliptic flow and its violation for phi mesons

Tetsufumi Hirano, Ulrich W. Heinz, Dmitri Kharzeev +2

We simulate the dynamics of Au+Au collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) with a hybrid model that treats the dense early quark-gluon plasma (QGP) stage macroscopi…

Eccentricity fluctuations from the Color Glass Condensate at RHIC and LHC

H. -J. Drescher, Y. Nara

In this brief note, we determine the fluctuations of the initial eccentricity in heavy-ion collisions caused by fluctuations of the nucleon configurations. This is done via a Monte…

Entropy production in high-energy heavy-ion collisions and the correlation of shear viscosity and thermalization time

A. Dumitru, E. Molnar, Y. Nara

We study entropy production in the early stage of high-energy heavy-ion collisions due to shear viscosity. We employ the second-order theory of Israel-Stewart with two different st…
