Dense Nuclear Matter Equation of State from Heavy-Ion Collisions
Agnieszka Sorensen, Kshitij Agarwal, Kyle W. Brown +133
The nuclear equation of state (EOS) is at the center of numerous theoretical and experimental efforts in nuclear physics. With advances in microscopic theories for nuclear interact…
Why does the thermal model for hadron production in heavy ion collisions work?
Berndt Müller, Andreas Schäfer
The yields for hadrons and even light nuclei measured at midrapidity in relativistic heavy ion collisions are found to be dictated exclusively by their thermal Boltzmann factor for…
Stress Tensor and Bulk Viscosity in Relativistic Nuclear Collisions
Rainer J. Fries, Berndt Müller, Andreas Schäfer
We discuss the influence of different initial conditions for the stress tensor and the effect of bulk viscosity on the expansion and cooling of the fireball created in relativistic…
Decoherence and Entropy Production in Relativistic Nuclear Collisions
Rainer J. Fries, Berndt Muller, Andreas Schafer
Short thermalization times of less than 1 fm/c for quark and gluon matter have been suggested by recent experiments at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). It has been diffi…
