Hydrodynamic elliptic and triangular flow in Pb-Pb collisions at sqrt(s)=2.76ATeV

Zhi Qiu, Chun Shen, Ulrich W. Heinz

It is shown that a simultaneous comparison of both elliptic and triangular flow from (2+1)-dimensional viscous fluid dynamics with recent measurements in Pb+Pb collisions at the La…

The viscosity of quark-gluon plasma at RHIC and the LHC

Ulrich W. Heinz, Chun Shen, Huichao Song

The specific shear viscosity (eta/s)_QGP of quark-gluon plasma (QGP) can be extracted from elliptic flow data in heavy-ion collisions by comparing them with the dynamical model VIS…

The QGP shear viscosity -- elusive goal or just around the corner?

Chun Shen, Steffen A Bass, Tetsufumi Hirano +4

With the new viscous hydrodynamic + hadron cascade hybrid code VISHNU, a rather precise (O(25%)) extraction of the QGP shear viscosity (eta/s)_QGP from heavy-ion elliptic flow data…

Systematics of parton-medium interaction from RHIC to LHC

Thorsten Renk, Jussi Auvinen, Kari J. Eskola +4

Despite a wealth of experimental data for high-P_T processes in heavy-ion collisions, discriminating between different models of hard parton-medium interactions has been difficult.…

Radial and elliptic flow in Pb+Pb collisions at the Large Hadron Collider from viscous hydrodynamic

Chun Shen, Ulrich W. Heinz, Pasi Huovinen +1

A comprehensive viscous hydrodynamic fit of spectra and elliptic flow for charged hadrons and identified pions and protons from Au+Au collisions of all centralities measured at the…

Hadron spectra and elliptic flow for 200 A GeV Au+Au collisions from viscous hydrodynamics coupled to a Boltzmann cascade

Huichao Song, Steffen A Bass, Ulrich W Heinz +2

It is shown that the recently developed hybrid code VISHNU, which couples a relativistic viscous fluid dynamical description of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) with a microscopic Bolt…
