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,…
Validity of a finite temperature expansion for dense nuclear matter
Debora Mroczek, Nanxi Yao, Katherine Zine +5
In this work we provide a new, well-controlled expansion of the equation of state of dense matter from zero to finite temperatures () while covering a wide range of charge fract…
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…
Structure in the speed of sound: from neutron stars to heavy-ion collisions
Nanxi Yao, Agnieszka Sorensen, Veronica Dexheimer +1
From the observation of both heavy neutron stars and light ones with small radii, one anticipates a steep rise in the speed of sound of nuclear matter as a function of baryon densi…
