Relativistic hydrodynamics for heavy-ion collisions
Jean-Yves Ollitrault
Relativistic hydrodynamics is essential to our current understanding of nucleus-nucleus collisions at ultrarelativistic energies (current experiments at the Relativistic Heavy Ion…
The centrality dependence of elliptic flow at LHC
Hans-Joachim Drescher, Adrian Dumitru, Jean-Yves Ollitrault
We present predictions for the centrality dependence of elliptic flow at mid-rapidity in Pb-Pb collisions at the LHC.
The centrality dependence of elliptic flow, the hydrodynamic limit, and the viscosity of hot QCD
Hans-Joachim Drescher, Adrian Dumitru, Clement Gombeaud +1
We show that the centrality and system-size dependence of elliptic flow measured at RHIC are fully described by a simple model based on eccentricity scaling and incomplete thermali…
Elliptic flow in transport theory and hydrodynamics
Clement Gombeaud, Jean-Yves Ollitrault
We present a new direct simulation Monte-Carlo method for solving the relativistic Boltzmann equation. We solve numerically the 2-dimensional Boltzmann equation using this new algo…
Momentum spectra, anisotropic flow, and ideal fluids
N. Borghini, J. -Y. Ollitrault
If the matter produced in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions reaches thermal equilibrium, its subsequent evolution follows the laws of ideal fluid dynamics. We show that genera…
Azimuthally sensitive correlations in nucleus-nucleus collisions
N. Borghini, J. -Y. Ollitrault
We define a set of model-independent observables which generally characterize the azimuthal dependence of two-particle correlations in nucleus-nucleus collisions. We explain how th…
