A Modified "Bottom-up" Thermalization in Heavy Ion Collisions

A. H. Mueller, A. I. Shoshi, S. M. H. Wong

In the initial stage of the bottom-up picture of thermalization in heavy ion collisions, the gluon distribution is highly anisotropic which can give rise to plasma instability. Thi…

Baryonic coherent state formation from small domain disoriented chiral condensates

Stephen M. H. Wong, Joseph I. Kapusta

Rare hyperon yields such as the Omega and AntiOmega in heavy ion collision experiments are hard to be reproduced by numerical models. This, in combination with the thermal fit to S…

Elliptic flow from partially thermalized heavy-ion collisions

Ulrich Heinz, Stephen M. H. Wong

We study to what extent the measured elliptic flow at RHIC constrains viscous deviations from ideal hydrodynamics. We solve a toy model where only transverse momenta are thermalize…

Elliptic Flow from a Transversally Thermalized Fireball

U. Heinz, S. M. H. Wong

The agreement of elliptic flow data at RHIC at central rapidity with the hydrodynamic model has led to the conclusion of very rapid thermalization. This conclusion is based on the…

Possible Evidence of Disoriented Chiral Condensates from the Anomaly in Omega and AntiOmega Abundances at the SPS

J. I. Kapusta, S. M. H. Wong

No conventional picture of nucleus-nucleus collisions has yet been able to explain the abundance of Omega and AntiOmega in central collisions between Pb nuclei at 158 A GeV at the…

Imaging the Space-Time Evolution of High Energy Nucleus-Nucleus Collisions with Bremsstrahlung

J. I. Kapusta, S. M. H. Wong

The bremsstrahlung produced when heavy nuclei collide is estimated for central collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. Bremsstrahlung photons with energies below 100 to…

Off-mass-shell Sudakov-like suppression factor for the fermionic four-point function in QCD

A. I. Karanikas, C. N. Ktorides, N. G. Stefanis +1

We consider a four-point process, associated with a wide-angle elastic scattering of two off-mass-shell spin-1/2 matter particles, in a non-abelian gauge theory. On the basis of a…
