MC-EKRT: Monte Carlo event generator with saturated minijet production for initializing 3+1 D fluid dynamics in high energy nuclear collisions
Harri Niemi, Jussi Auvinen, Kari J. Eskola +3
We present a novel saturation and leading order collinear factorization based Monte-Carlo implementation of the EKRT model for computing QCD matter initial states in high-energy nu…

Effects of saturation and fluctuating hotspots for flow observables in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions
Henry Hirvonen, Mikko Kuha, Jussi Auvinen +3
We investigate the effects of saturation dynamics on midrapidity flow observables by adding fluctuating hotspots into the novel Monte Carlo EKRT (MC-EKRT) event generator for high-…

MC-EKRT: Monte Carlo event generator with saturated minijet production for initializing 3+1 D fluid dynamics in high energy nuclear collisions
Mikko Kuha, Jussi Auvinen, Kari J. Eskola +3
We present a novel Monte-Carlo implementation of the EKRT model, MC-EKRT, for computing partonic initial states in high-energy nuclear collisions. Our new MC-EKRT event generator i…
