Shear viscosity and out of equilibrium dynamics
Andrej El, Zhe Xu, Carsten Greiner +1
Using Grad's method, we calculate the entropy production and derive a formula for the second-order shear viscosity coefficient in a one-dimensionally expanding particle system, whi…
Review of the "Bottom-Up" scenario
Andrej El, Zhe Xu, Carsten Greiner
Thermalization of a longitudinally expanding color glass condensate with Bjorken boost invariant geometry is investigated within parton cascade BAMPS. Our main focus lies on the de…
Elliptic flow of gluon matter in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions
Zhe Xu, Carsten Greiner
Employing a perturbative QCD based parton cascade we calculate the elliptic flow and its transverse momentum dependence for the gluon matter created in Au+Au colli…
QCD plasma equilibration, elliptic flow and jet-quenching - phenomena of common origin
Oliver Fochler, Andrej El, Zhe Xu +1
Fast thermalization, a subsequent strong buildup of elliptic flow of QCD matter and jet-quenching as found at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) are understood as the conse…
Transverse momentum diffusion and jet energy loss in non-Abelian plasmas
Bjoern Schenke, Michael Strickland, Adrian Dumitru +2
We consider momentum broadening and energy loss of high momentum partons in a hot non-Abelian plasma due to collisions. We solve the coupled system of Wong-Yang-Mills equations on…
QCD plasma thermalization, collective flow and extraction of shear viscosity
Zhe Xu, Carsten Greiner, Horst Stoecker
Fast thermalization and elliptic flow of QCD matter found at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) are understood as the consequence of perturbative QCD (pQCD) interactions wi…
Towards a Unified Understanding of Jet Quenching and Elliptic Flow within Perturbative QCD Parton Transport
O. Fochler, Z. Xu, C. Greiner
The gluonic contribution to the nuclear modification factor R_AA is investigated for central Au + Au collisions at sqrt(s) = 200 GeV employing a perturbative QCD-based parton casca…
