Optimizing direct laser-driven electron acceleration and energy gain at ELI-NP

Etele Molnar, Dan Stutman, Catalin Ticos

We study and discuss electron acceleration in vacuum interacting with fundamental Gaussian pulses using specific parameters relevant for the multi-PW femtosecond lasers at ELI-NP.…

Influence of temperature dependent shear viscosity on elliptic flow at back- and forward rapidities in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions

Etele Molnar, Hannu Holopainen, Pasi Huovinen +1

We explore the influence of a temperature-dependent shear viscosity over entropy density ratio on the azimuthal anisotropies v_2 and v_4 of hadrons at various rapidities. We…

Solving the heat-flow problem with transient relativistic fluid dynamics

G. S. Denicol, H. Niemi, I. Bouras +4

Israel-Stewart theory is a causal, stable formulation of relativistic dissipative fluid dynamics. This theory has been shown to give a decent description of the dynamical behavior…

Effect of temperature-dependent eta/s on flow anisotropies

Harri Niemi, Gabriel S. Denicol, Pasi Huovinen +2

We investigate the effects of a temperature-dependent shear viscosity over entropy density ratio eta/s on the flow anisotropy coefficients v_2 and v_4 in ultrarelativistic heavy-io…

Development of relativistic shock waves in viscous gluon matter

I. Bouras, E. Molnar, H. Niemi +5

To investigate the formation and the propagation of relativistic shock waves in viscous gluon matter we solve the relativistic Riemann problem using a microscopic parton cascade. W…
