A flow paradigm in heavy-ion collisions
Li Yan
The success of hydrodynamics in high energy heavy-ion collisions leads to a flow paradigm, to understand the observed features of harmonic flow in terms of the medium collective ex…

Onset of hydrodynamics for a quark-gluon plasma from the evolution of moments of distribution functions
Jean-Paul Blaizot, Li Yan
The pre-equilibrium evolution of a quark-gluon plasma produced in a heavy-ion collision is studied in the framework of kinetic theory. We discuss the approach to local thermal equi…
