Thermal photons from heavy ion collisions: A spectral function approach
Kevin Dusling, Ismail Zahed
We analyze the photon rates from a hadronic gas in equilibrium using chiral reduction formulas and a density expansion. The chiral reduction is carried to second order in the pion…
Radiative energy loss and v2 spectra for viscous hydrodynamics
Kevin Dusling, Guy Moore, Derek Teaney
This work investigates the first correction to the equilibrium phase space distribution and its effects on spectra and elliptic flow in heavy ion collisions. We show that the depar…
Parton energy loss in a classical strongly coupled QGP
Kevin Dusling, Ismail Zahed
We investigate the energy loss of heavy quarks in the gas, liquid and solid phase of a classical quark-gluon plasma (cQGP) using molecular dynamics simulations. The model consists…
Photons as a viscometer of heavy ion collisions
Kevin Dusling
The viscous correction to thermal photon production at leading log order is calculated and integrated over the space-time evolution of a hydrodynamic simulation of heavy-ion collis…
Three-particle correlation from glasma flux tubes
Kevin Dusling, Daniel Fernandez-Fraile, Raju Venugopalan
We compute three particle correlations in the Glasma flux tube model of high energy heavy ion collisions. We obtain a simple geometrical picture of these correlations; when convolu…
Hydrodynamic Description of Dilepton Production
Kevin Dusling
The first part of this thesis focuses on the production of thermal dileptons from a hadronic gas at finite temperature. The rates are calculated by an expansion in Pion density and…
