Studying the QCD Matter produced in Heavy-Ion Collisions using the MUSES Calculation Engine
Johannes Jahan, Kevin P. Pala, Yumu Yang +42
The equation of state of hot and dense matter is essential for describing heavy-ion collisions at all collision energies. Here, we explore the capabilities of the latest version of…
NuclearConfectionery: Multi-stage Simulation Framework for Modeling Relativistic Heavy-ion Collisions
Kevin P. Pala, Surkhab Kaur Virk, Dekrayat Almaalol +9
We present the NuclearConfectionery, a modular framework for simulating the full dynamical evolution of relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Its core hydrodynamic module, CCAKE 2.0,…
Unlocking "imprints" of conserved charges in the initial state of heavy-ion collisions
Fernando G. Gardim, Dekrayat Almaalol, Jordi Salinas San Martín +2
Hydrodynamic approaches to modeling relativistic high-energy heavy-ion collisions are based on the conservation of energy and momentum. However, the medium formed in these collisio…
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).…
Long Range Plan: Dense matter theory for heavy-ion collisions and neutron stars
Alessandro Lovato, Travis Dore, Robert D. Pisarski +61
Since the release of the 2015 Long Range Plan in Nuclear Physics, major events have occurred that reshaped our understanding of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and nuclear matter at l…
Causality violations in realistic simulations of heavy-ion collisions
Christopher Plumberg, Dekrayat Almaalol, Travis Dore +2
Causality is violated in the early stages of state-of-the-art heavy-ion hydrodynamic simulations. Such violations are present in up to 75% of the fluid cells in the initial time an…
Anisotropic hydrodynamics with number-conserving kernels
D. Almaalol, M. Alqahtani, M. Strickland
We compare anisotropic hydrodynamics (aHydro) results obtained using the relaxation-time approximation (RTA) and leading-order (LO) scalar λϕ^4 collisional kernels. We extend previ…
Anisotropic hydrodynamic modeling of 200 GeV Au-Au collisions
Dekrayat Almaalol, Mubarak Alqahtani, Michael Strickland
We compare phenomenological results from 3+1d quasiparticle anisotropic hydrodynamics (aHydroQP) with experimental data collected in RHIC 200 GeV Au-Au collisions. We present compa…
