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,…

Viscous Gubser flow with conserved charges to benchmark fluid simulations

Kevin Ingles, Jordi Salinas San Martín, Willian Serenone +1

We present semi-analytical solutions for the evolution of both the temperature and chemical potentials for viscous Gubser flow with conserved charges. Such a solution can be especi…

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).…

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…

polarization from vortex ring as medium response for jet thermalization

Vitor Hugo Ribeiro, David Dobrigkeit Chinellato, Michael Annan Lisa +4

We performed a systematic study on the formation of vorticity rings as the process for jet thermalization in the medium created in high-energy nuclear collisions. In this work, we…

Impact of the pre-equilibrium phase for the determination of nuclear geometry in high-energy isobar collisions

Fernando G. Gardim, André V. Giannini, Frédérique Grassi +2

Ultrarelativistic isobar collisions have been proposed as a useful tool to investigate nuclear structure. These systems are not created in equilibrium, rather undergo a pre-thermal…

Cumulants of conserved charges in hydrodynamic simulations

Renan Hirayama, Frederique Grassi, Willian Matioli Serenone +1

We introduce a fast and simple method of computing cumulants of net-proton or net-charge fluctuations in event-by-event hydrodynamic simulations of heavy-ion collisions. One evalua…

Λ polarization from thermalized jet energy

Willian Matioli Serenone, João Guilherme Prado Barbon, David Dobrigkeit Chinellato +4

We examine the formation of vortical "smoke rings" as a result of thermalization of energy lost by a jet. We simulate the formation and evolution of these rings using hydrodynamics…

Vortex rings from high energy central p+A collisions

Michael Annan Lisa, João Guilherme Prado Barbon, David Dobrigkeit Chinellato +4

Relativistic p+A collisions may produce droplets of quark gluon plasma (QGP) that quickly develop a toroidal vortex structure similar to that of an expanding smoke ring. We present…

Pre-hydrodynamic evolution and its signatures in final-state heavy-ion observables

Tiago Nunes da Silva, David Chinellato, Mauricio Hippert +5

We investigate the effects of pre-hydrodynamic evolution on final-state observables in heavy-ion collisions using state-of-the art event simulations coupled to different pre-hydrod…

Probing the structure of the initial state of heavy-ion collisions with -dependent flow fluctuations

Maurício Hippert, João Guilherme Prado Barbon, David Dobrigkeit Chinellato +5

The connection between initial-state geometry and anisotropic flow can be quantified through a well-established mapping between -integrated flow harmonics and cumulants of the…
