Covariant diffusion tensor for jet momentum broadening out of equilibrium

Isabella Danhoni, Nicki Mullins, Jorge Noronha

Jets are produced in the earliest stages of heavy-ion collisions, where they can interact with a medium that is not yet close to local equilibrium. Motivated by this, we generalize…

Solving BDNK diffusion using physics-informed neural networks

Vicente Chomalí-Castro, Nick Clarisse, Nicki Mullins +1

In this work, we reformulate the relativistic BDNK (Bemfica-Disconzi-Noronha-Kovtun) diffusion equation in flux-conservative form, and solve the resulting equations in D usi…

Emergent Viscous Hydrodynamics From a Single Quantum Particle

Zhi-Li Zhou, Mauricio Hippert, Nicki Mullins +1

We investigate an explicit example of how spatial decoherence can lead to hydrodynamic behavior in the late-time, long-wavelength regime of open quantum systems. We focus on the ca…

A new effective theory for stochastic relativistic hydrodynamics

Nicki Mullins, Mauricio Hippert, Jorge Noronha

Thermal fluctuations are a fundamental feature of dissipative systems that are essential for understanding physics near the expected critical point of QCD and in small systems. Whe…

Effective action for relativistic hydrodynamics from Crooks fluctuation theorem

Nicki Mullins, Mauricio Hippert, Jorge Noronha

A new effective theory framework for fluctuating hydrodynamics in the relativistic regime is derived using standard thermodynamical principles and general properties of non-equilib…
