The Sound Edge of the Quenching Jets

Edward Shuryak, Pilar Staig

When quenching jets deposit certain amount of energy and momentum into ambient matter, part of it propagates in the form of shocks/sounds. The "sound surface", separating disturbed…

The Sounds of the QCD Phase Transition

Edward Shuryak, Pilar Staig

Hydrodynamic description of a fireball produced in high energy heavy ion collisions has been recently supplemented by a very successful study of acoustic perturbation created by th…

Sound Propagation on Top of the Fireball

Pilar Staig, Edward Shuryak

We study the effect that initial state fluctuations have on final particle correlations in heavy ion collisions. More precisely, we focus on the propagation of initial perturbation…

The second act of hydro: small perturbations

Pilar Staig, Edward Shuryak

Hydrodynamical description of the "Little Bang" in heavy ion collisions is surprisingly successful: here we systematically study propagation of small perturbations %, also treated…

The Fate of the Initial State Fluctuations in Heavy Ion Collisions. III The Second Act of Hydrodynamics

Pilar Staig, Edward Shuryak

Hydrodynamical description of the "Little Bang" in heavy ion collisions is surprisingly successful, mostly due to the very small viscosity of the Quark-Gluon plasma. In this paper…

The Fate of the Initial State Fluctuations in Heavy Ion Collisions. II The Fluctuations and Sounds

Pilar Staig, Edward Shuryak

Heavy ion collisions at RHIC are well described by the (nearly ideal) hydrodynamics for average events. In the present paper we study initial state fluctuations appearing on event-…
