Transport coefficients of chiral fluid dynamics using low-energy effective models

Abstract

We investigate the first-order transport coefficients of a fluid made of quasiparticles with a temperature-dependent mass extracted from chiral models. We describe this system using an effective kinetic theory, given by the relativistic Boltzmann equation coupled to a temperature-dependent background field determined from the thermal masses. We then simplify the collision term using the relaxation time approximation and implement a Chapman-Enskog expansion to calculate all first-order transport coefficients. In particular, we compute the bulk and shear viscosities using thermal masses extracted from the linear sigma model coupled with constituent quarks and the NJL model.
