Temperature dependence of of strongly interacting matter: effects of the equation of state and the parametric form of
Jussi Auvinen, Kari J. Eskola, Pasi Huovinen +3
We investigate the temperature dependence of the shear viscosity to entropy density ratio using a piecewise linear parametrization. To determine the optimal values of the par…
Latest predictions from the EbyE NLO EKRT model
Harri Niemi, Kari J. Eskola, Risto Paatelainen +1
We present the latest results from the NLO pQCD + saturation + viscous hydrodynamics (EbyE NLO EKRT) model. The parameters in the EKRT saturation model are fixed by the charged had…
Applicability of pion-nucleus Drell-Yan data in global analysis of nuclear parton distribution functions
Petja Paakkinen, Kari J. Eskola, Hannu Paukkunen
Despite the success of modern nuclear parton distribution functions (nPDFs) in describing nuclear hard-process data, they still suffer from large uncertainties. One of the poorly c…
Centrality and initial formation time dependence of the emission of thermal photons from fluctuating initial conditions at RHIC and LHC
Rupa Chatterjee, Hannu Holopainen, Thorsten Renk +1
Event-by-event fluctuating initial conditions (IC) in the ideal hydrodynamic calculation are known to enhance the production of thermal photons significantly compared to a smooth i…
Collision centrality and dependence of the emission of thermal photons from fluctuating initial state in ideal hydrodynamic calculation
Rupa Chatterjee, Hannu Holopainen, Thorsten Renk +1
Fluctuations in the initial QCD matter density distribution are found to enhance the production of thermal photons significantly in the range 2 \leq pT \leq 4 GeV/c compared to a s…
Transverse spectra of hadrons at RHIC
K. J. Eskola, H. Niemi, P. V. Ruuskanen +1
We present results on spectra of pions, kaons and (anti)protons from a study of heavy ion collisions using the perturbative QCD + saturation model to calculate the production of in…
Last Call for RHIC Predictions
S. Bass, M. Bleicher, W. Cassing +27
This paper contains the individual contributions of all speakers of the session on 'Last Call for RHIC Predictions' at Quark Matter 99, and a summary by the convenor.
Minijets in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions at future colliders
K. J. Eskola
The role of minijet production as initial conditions for QGP production at in nuclear collisions at the LHC and RHIC energies is discussed.
Hydrodynamics of nuclear collisions with initial conditions from perturbative QCD
K. J. Eskola, K. Kajantie, P. V. Ruuskanen
We compute the longitudinal hydrodynamic flow in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions at = 5500 GeV by using boost non-invariant initial conditions following from pert…
Baryon-to-entropy ratio in very high energy nuclear collisions
K. J. Eskola, K. Kajantie
We compute as a function of rapidity the baryon number carried by quarks and antiquarks with 2 GeV produced in Pb+Pb collisions at TeV energies. The computa…
Self-Screened Parton Cascades
Kari J. Eskola, Berndt Müller, Xin-Nian Wang
The high density of scattered partons predicted in nuclear collisions at very high energy makes color screening effects significant. We explain how these screening mechanisms may s…
Minijet-associated Dilepton Production in Ultrarelativistic Heavy Ion Collisions
K. J. Eskola, Xin-Nian Wang
Dilepton production associated with minijets is calculated in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions using the first order approximation of the dilepton fragmentation functions of…
