Viscosity of non equilibrium hot $\&$ dense QCD drop formed at LHC

Abstract

We compute the bulk, $\zeta$, and shear, $\eta$, viscosity over entropy density, $s$, for the QCD matter formed in small collision systems at LHC. We consider a scenario of the String Percolation Model by proposing a global form of the color reduction factor that describes both the thermodynamic limit and its maximum deviation due to small-bounded effects. Our method involves estimations at vanishing baryon-chemical potential, assuming local equilibrium for string clusters in the initial state. To compute $\eta /s$, we employed a kinetic approach that accounts QCD states as an ideal gas of partons, while $\zeta /s$ is computed by using two different approaches: a simple kinetic formula and the causal dissipative relativistic fluid dynamics formulation. Our results align with Lattice QCD computations and Bayesian methods and are consistent with holographic conjecture bounds. Furthermore, our findings support the notion of a strongly interacting medium, similar to that observed in nuclear collisions, albeit with a phase transition occurring outside the thermodynamic limit.
