Stress Tensor and Bulk Viscosity in Relativistic Nuclear Collisions

Rainer J. Fries, Berndt Müller, Andreas Schäfer

We discuss the influence of different initial conditions for the stress tensor and the effect of bulk viscosity on the expansion and cooling of the fireball created in relativistic…

Elliptic Flow of Rare High-Momentum Probes in Nuclear Collisions

W. Liu, R. J Fries

In high energy nuclear collisions the leading parton of a jet can change flavor through interactions with the surrounding medium. This can considerably boost the relative yield of…

Heavy Quark Production from Jet Conversions in a Quark-Gluon Plasma

W. Liu, R. J. Fries

Recently, it has been demonstrated that the chemical composition of jets in heavy ion collisions is significantly altered compared to jets in the vacuum. This signal can be used to…

Probing Nuclear Matter with Jet Conversions

W. Liu, R. J. Fries

We discuss the flavor of leading jet partons as a valuable probe of nuclear matter. We point out that the coupling of jets to nuclear matter naturally leads to an alteration of jet…

Quark and Gluon Degrees of Freedom in High-Energy Heavy Ion Collisions

Rainer J. Fries

I discuss some recent progress in our understanding of high energy nuclear collisions. I will focus on two topics which I was lucky to co-pioneer in the recent past. One is recombi…

Photon bremsstrahlung and diffusive broadening of a hard jet

A. Majumder, R. J. Fries, B. Müller

The photon bremsstrahlung rate from a quark jet produced in deep-inelastic scattering (DIS) off a large nucleus is studied in the collinear limit. The leading medium-enhanced highe…
