The effect of weak magnetic photon emission from quark-gluon plasma

Jing-An Sun, Li Yan

We propose a novel effect that accounts for the photon emission from a quark-gluon plasma in the presence of a weak external magnetic field. Although the weak magnetic photon emiss…

Far-from-equilibrium slow modes and momentum anisotropy in expanding plasma

Jasmine Brewer, Weiyao Ke, Li Yan +1

The momentum distribution of particle production in heavy-ion collisions encodes information about thermalization processes in the early-stage quark-gluon plasma. We use kinetic th…

Hydrodynamic attractor of noisy plasmas

Zenan Chen, Derek Teaney, Li Yan

We provide a generalized formulation of fluctuating hydrodynamics for the far-from-equilibrium noisy medium. As an example, we consider a noisy plasma experiencing Bjorken expansio…

Hydrodynamic attractor in the non-conformal Bjorken flow

Zenan Chen, Li Yan

Non-conformal attractor behavior is studied by solving non-conformal second order viscous hydrodynamics with respect to boost-invariant plasmas. Numerical solutions of the relative…

On attractor and fixed points in Bjorken flows

Jean-Paul Blaizot, Li Yan

We consider a plasma of massless particles undergoing Bjorken expansion, mimicking the matter created in ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions. We study the transition to hydrody…

Dynamical evolution of magnetic field in the pre-equilibrium quark-gluon plasma

Li Yan, Xu-Guang Huang

High-energy heavy-ion collisions generate extremely strong magnetic field which plays a key role in a number of novel quantum phenomena in quark-gluon plasma (QGP), such as the chi…
