Entropy puzzle in small exploding systems
J. P. Bondorf, I. N. Mishustin, G. Neergaard
We use a simple hard-core gas model to study the dynamics of small exploding systems. The system is initially prepared in a thermalized state in a spherical container and then allo…
Equilibration and freeze-out in an exploding system
J. P. Bondorf, H. Feldmeier, I. N. Mishustin +1
We use a simple gas model to study non-equilibrium aspects of the multiparticle dynamics relevant to heavy ion collisions. By performing numerical simulations for various initial c…
Thermodynamics of explosions
Gregers Neergaard, Jakob P. Bondorf, Igor N. Mishustin
We present our first attempts to formulate a thermodynamics-like description of explosions. The motivation is partly a fundamental interest in non-equilibrium statistical physics,…
Does the quark-gluon plasma contain stable hadronic bubbles?
Gregers Neergaard, Jes Madsen
We calculate the thermodynamic potential of bubbles of hadrons embedded in quark-gluon plasma, and of droplets of quark-gluon plasma embedded in hadron phase. This is a generalizat…
Free energy of bubbles and droplets in the quark-hadron phase transition
Gregers Neergaard, Jes Madsen
Using the MIT bag model, we calculate the free energy of droplets of quark-gluon plasma in a bulk hadronic medium, and of hadronic bubbles in a bulk quark-gluon plasma, under the a…
