Hydrodynamic approach to p-Pb

Abstract
The formation and collective expansion of the fireball formed in ultrarelativistic p-A and d-A collisions is discussed. Predictions of the hydrodynamic model are compared to recent experimental results. The presence of strong final state interaction effects in the small dense systems is consistent with the observed azimuthal anisotropy of the flow and with the mass dependence of the average transverse momentum and of the elliptic flow. This raises the question of the mechanism explaining such a rapid build up of the collective flow and the large degree of local equilibration needed to justify this scenario.
