Current Status of Quark Gluon Plasma Signals
D. Zschiesche, S. Bass, M. Bleicher +9
Compelling evidence for the creation of a new form of matter has been claimed to be found in Pb+Pb collisions at SPS. We discuss the uniqueness of often proposed experimental signa…
Hydrodynamic Models for Heavy-Ion Collisions, and beyond
A. Dumitru, J. Brachmann, E. S. Fraga +5
A generic property of a first-order phase transition in equilibrium, and in the limit of large entropy per unit of conserved charge, is the smallness of the isentropic speed of sou…
Observing compact quark matter droplets in relativistic nuclear collisions
K. Paech, J. Brachmann, M. A. Lisa +3
Compactness is introduced as a new method to search for the onset of the quark matter transition in relativistic heavy ion collisions. That transition supposedly leads to stronger…
The directed flow maximum near c_s=0
J. Brachmann, A. Dumitru, H. Stöcker +1
We investigate the excitation function of quark-gluon plasma formation and of directed in-plane flow of nucleons in the energy range of the BNL-AGS and for the E(Lab)=40AGeV Pb+Pb…
Antiflow of Nucleons at the Softest Point of the EoS
J. Brachmann, S. Soff, A. Dumitru +4
We investigate flow in semi-peripheral nuclear collisions at AGS and SPS energies within macroscopic as well as microscopic transport models. The hot and dense zone assumes the sha…
Entropy Production in Collisions of Relativistic Heavy Ions -- a signal for Quark-Gluon Plasma phase transition?
M. Reiter, A. Dumitru, J. Brachmann +3
Entropy production in the compression stage of heavy ion collisions is discussed within three distinct macroscopic models (i.e. generalized RHTA, geometrical overlap model and thre…
