Fragmentation of the fireball and how to observe it
Boris Tomasik, Ivan Melo, Giorgio Torrieri +4
We argue that fragmentation at hadronisation is likely scenario in ultrarelativistic nuclear collisions. In case of crossover phase transition it is driven by a singularity of the…
Study of event-by-event fluctuations in heavy ion collisions
B. Tomasik, I. Melo, M. Gintner +1
We propose Kolmogorov-Smirnov test as a means for recognising event-by-event fluctuations of rapidity distributions in relativistic heavy ion collisions. Such fluctuations may be i…
Non-equilibrium Phase Transitions in Ultrarelativistic Nuclear Collisions
B. Tomasik, G. Torrieri, I. Melo +4
Highly excited nuclear matter created in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions possibly reaches the phase of quark deconfinement. It quickly cools down and hadronises. We explain…
Bulk Viscosity driven clusterization of quark-gluon plasma and early freeze-out in relativistic heavy-ion collisions
Giorgio Torrieri, Boris Tomasik, Igor Mishustin
We introduce a new scenario for heavy ion collisions that could solve the lingering problems associated with the so-called HBT puzzle. We postulate that the system starts expansion…
