Isotropization in heavy ion collisions in the 2PI formalism
Francois Gelis
An important 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 pres…

Isotropization of a longitudinally expanding system of scalar fields in the 2PI formalism
François Gelis, Sigtryggur Hauksson
Motivated by isotropization of QCD matter in the initial stages of heavy-ion collisions, we consider a system of scalar fields that undergoes a boost invariant longitudinal expansi…
