Is there elliptic flow without transverse flow?

P. Huovinen, P. F. Kolb, U. Heinz

Azimuthal anisotropy of final particle distributions was originally introduced as a signature of transverse collective flow. We show that finite anisotropy in momentum space can re…

Elliptic flow at SPS and RHIC: from kinetic transport to hydrodynamics

P. F. Kolb, P. Huovinen, U. Heinz +1

Anisotropic transverse flow is studied in Pb+Pb and Au+Au collisions at SPS and RHIC energies. The centrality and transverse momentum dependence at midrapidity of the elliptic flow…

Will relativistic heavy-ion colliders destroy our planet?

Arnon Dar, A. De Rújula, Ulrich Heinz

Experiments at the Brookhaven National Laboratory will study collisions between gold nuclei at unprecedented energies. The concern has been voiced that ``strangelets''-hypothetical…

Hydrodynamic simulation of elliptic flow

P. F. Kolb, J. Sollfrank, P. V. Ruuskanen +1

We use a hydrodynamic model to study the space-time evolution transverse to the beam direction in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions with nonzero impact parameters. We focus on…

Coulomb Final State Interactions for Gaussian Wave Packets

U. A. Wiedemann, D. Ferenc, U. Heinz

Two-particle like-sign and unlike-sign correlations including Coulomb final state interactions are calculated for Gaussian wave packets emitted from a Gaussian source. We show that…

Bose-Einstein Correlations in a Space-Time Approach to e+ e- Annihilation into Hadrons

K. Geiger, J. Ellis, U. Heinz +1

A new treatment of Bose-Einstein correlations is incorporated in a space-time parton-shower model for e+ e- annihilation into hadrons. Two alternative afterburners are discussed, a…
