Shear viscosity and damping of collective modes in a two-dimensional Fermi gas
Thomas Schaefer
We compute the shear viscosity of a two dimensional Fermi gas interacting via a short range potential with scattering length in kinetic theory. We find that kinetic theory…
Bulk viscosity, particle spectra and flow in heavy-ion collisions
Kevin Dusling, Thomas Schaefer
We study the effects of bulk viscosity on pT spectra and elliptic flow in heavy ion collisions. For this purpose we compute the dissipative correction df to the single particle dis…
Nearly Perfect Fluidity in the Dilute Fermi Gas: An Update
Thomas Schaefer
In this contribution we summarize recent results on the transport properties of strongly correlated dilute Fermi gases. We discuss the hydrodynamic equations in the normal phase an…
Conformal symmetry and non-relativistic second order fluid dynamics
Jingyi Chao, Thomas Schaefer
We study the constraints imposed by conformal symmetry on the equations of fluid dynamics at second order in gradients of the hydrodynamic variables. At zeroth order conformal symm…
Elliptic flow of the dilute Fermi gas: From kinetics to hydrodynamics
Kevin Dusling, Thomas Schaefer
We use the Boltzmann equation in the relaxation time approximation to study the expansion of a dilute Fermi gas at unitarity. We focus, in particular, on the approach to the hydrod…
