Initial-State Charge Density Predicts Final-State Net Charge Flow in Heavy-Ion Collisions

Jefferson Sousa, Matthew D. Sievert, Jacquelyn Noronha-Hostler +2

We propose a new class of charge-conjugation-odd flow observables and use them to investigate the dynamics of conserved currents in simulations of relativistic heavy-ion collisions…

BSQ Conserved Charges in Relativistic Viscous Hydrodynamics solved with Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics

Christopher Plumberg, Dekrayat Almaalol, Travis Dore +8

Conservation laws play a crucial role in the modeling of heavy-ion collisions, including the those for charges such as baryon number (B), strangeness (S), and electric charge (Q).…

Toward Initial Conditions of Conserved Charges

Patrick Carzon

At top collider energies where baryon stopping is negligible, the initial state of heavy ion collisions is overall charge neutral and predominantly composed of gluons. Nevertheless…

Influence of baryon number, strangeness, and electric charge fluctuations at the LHC

Christopher Plumberg, Dekrayat Almaalol, Travis Dore +8

At the Large Hadron Collider it is possible to generate BSQ (baryon, strangeness, and electric) charge density fluctuations from gluon splittings into quark/anti-quark pairs, gener…

Pre-Equilibrium Evolution of Conserved Charges with ICCING Initial Conditions

Patrick Carzon, Mauricio Martinez, Jacquelyn Noronha-Hostler +3

Heavy-ion collisions can be well described through relativistic viscous hydrodynamics, but questions still remain when hydrodynamics is applicable because the initial state may beg…

Initializing BSQ with Open-Source ICCING

Patrick Carzon, Mauricio Martinez, Matthew D. Sievert +2

While it is well known that there is a significant amount of conserved charges in the initial state of nuclear collisions, the production of these due to gluon splitting has yet to…

Impact of Multiplicity Fluctuations on Entropy Scaling Across System Size

Patrick Carzon, Matthew D. Sievert, Jacquelyn Noronha-Hostler

The initial state is one of the greatest uncertainties in heavy-ion collisions. A model-agnostic approach is taken in the phenomenological Trento framework which constrains paramet…

Importance of Multiplicity Fluctuations in Entropy Scaling

Patrick Carzon, Matthew D. Sievert, Jacquelyn Noronha-Hostler

One of the greatest uncertainties in heavy-ion collisions is the description of the initial state. Different models predict a wide range of initial energy density distributions bas…

Possible octupole deformation of Pb and the ultracentral to puzzle

Patrick Carzon, Skandaprasad Rao, Matthew Luzum +2

Recent measurements have established the sensitivity of ultracentral heavy-ion collisions to the deformation parameters of non-spherical nuclei. In the case of Xe collis…

Toward Initial Conditions of Conserved Charges Part II: The ICCING Monte Carlo Algorithm

Patrick Carzon, Mauricio Martinez, Matthew D. Sievert +2

At top collider energies where baryon stopping is negligible, the initial state of heavy ion collisions is overall charge neutral and predominantly composed of gluons. Nevertheless…
