Hydrodynamic elliptic and triangular flow in Pb-Pb collisions at sqrt(s)=2.76ATeV
Zhi Qiu, Chun Shen, Ulrich W. Heinz
It is shown that a simultaneous comparison of both elliptic and triangular flow from (2+1)-dimensional viscous fluid dynamics with recent measurements in Pb+Pb collisions at the La…
Event-by-event hydrodynamics for heavy-ion collisions
Zhi Qiu, Ulrich W Heinz
We compare v2/ε2 and v3/ε3 from single-shot and event-by-event (2+1)-dimensional hydrodynamic calculations and discuss the validity of using single-shot calculations as substitutes…
The QGP shear viscosity -- elusive goal or just around the corner?
Chun Shen, Steffen A Bass, Tetsufumi Hirano +4
With the new viscous hydrodynamic + hadron cascade hybrid code VISHNU, a rather precise (O(25%)) extraction of the QGP shear viscosity (eta/s)_QGP from heavy-ion elliptic flow data…
Event-by-event shape and flow fluctuations of relativistic heavy-ion collision fireballs
Zhi Qiu, Ulrich W. Heinz
Heavy-ion collisions create deformed quark-gluon plasma (QGP) fireballs which explode anisotropically. The viscosity of the fireball matter determines its ability to convert the in…
