3D Initial-State Dynamics across scales: A Comparative Study of saturation and string-based descriptions
Lucas Constantin, Oscar Garcia-Montero, Niklas Götz +1
We compare the longitudinal deposition of various conserved quantities in the initial condition models of a string based (SMASH) and a saturation based (McDipper) approach. SMASH h…
Collective effects in O-O and Ne-Ne collisions at =5.36 TeV from a hybrid approach
Lucas Constantin, Niklas Götz, Carl B. Rosenkvist +1
Many features of heavy-ion collisions are well described by hybrid approaches, where the droplet of strongly coupled quark gluon plasma (QGP) is modeled by hydrodynamics and the su…
Pushing the hybrid approach to low beam energies with dynamic initial conditions from hadronic transport
Renan Góes-Hirayama, Joscha Egger, Zuzana PaulÃnyová +2
While hybrid approaches of relativistic hydrodynamics+transport have been well established for the dynamical description of heavy-ion collisions at high beam energies, moving to lo…
Imprints of dynamic fluidization on dilepton production
Renan Góes-Hirayama, Zuzana PaulÃnyová, Joscha Egger +2
We present a newly developed hybrid hadronic transport + hydrodynamics framework geared towards heavy ion collisions at low to intermediate beam energies, and report on the resulti…
Theory Summary
Hannah Elfner
This is the write-up of the summary talk on theory activities in the heavy-ion community as presented at Quark Matter 2025. It contains a (biased) selection of results from the par…
SMASH: Results from hadronic transport for heavy-ion collisions at high densities
Hannah Elfner, Renan Góes-Hirayama
This mini-review summarizes the general setup and some highlight results from the hadronic transport approach SMASH (Simulating Many Accelerated Strongly-interacting Hadrons). We s…
