Study of a longitudinally expanding plasma with the 2PI effective action

François Gelis, Sigtryggur Hauksson

A central question in heavy-ion collisions is how the initial far-from-equilibrium medium evolves and thermalizes while it undergoes a rapid longitudinal expansion. In this work we…

Evolution of fluctuations in the initial state of heavy-ion collisions from RHIC to LHC

Giuliano Giacalone, François Gelis, Pablo Guerrero-Rodríguez +3

Fluctuations in the initial state of heavy-ion collisions are larger at RHIC energy than at LHC energy. This fact can be inferred from recent measurements of the fluctuations of th…

Primordial fluctuations in heavy-ion collisions

François Gelis, Giuliano Giacalone, Pablo Guerrero-Rodríguez +2

We present a simple description of the energy density profile created in a nucleus-nucleus collision, motivated by high-energy QCD. The energy density is modeled as the sum of cont…

Initial state and thermalization

K. Dusling, T. Epelbaum, F. Gelis +1

We report recent results on the role of instabilities in the isotropization and thermalization of a longitudinally expanding system of quantum fields.

The effect of the vertical part of the path on the real time Feynman rules in finite temperature field theory

François Gelis

The effect of the contribution of the vertical part of the real time path is studied completely in the case of two points functions. Indeed, this vertical part generally contribute…
