Equilibration Rates in a Strongly Coupled Nonconformal Quark-Gluon Plasma.
We initiate the study of equilibration rates of strongly coupled quark-gluon plasmas in the absence of conformal symmetry. We primarily consider a supersymmetric mass deformation within N=2^{*} gauge theory and use holography to compute quasinormal modes of a variety of scalar operators, as well as the energy-momentum tensor. In each case, the lowest quasinormal frequency, which provides an app...
متن کاملChemical equilibration in viscous quark-gluon plasma and electromagnetic signals
We investigate the chemical equilibration of the parton distributions in collisions of two heavy nuclei, assuming the partonic fluid to be ideal as well as viscous. The initial conditions are taken from HIJING calculations for Au+Au collisions at RHIC and LHC energies. It was seen that when the viscous drag is taken into account in the fluid flow, the life time of the plasma is increased by nea...
متن کاملEquilibration of the Gluon-Minijet Plasma at RHIC and LHC
We study the production and equilibration of the gluon-minijet plasma expected to be formed in the central region of ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions at the BNL-RHIC and the CERN-LHC by solving a self-consistent relativistic transport equation. We compute the minijet production within perturbative QCD. Subsequent collisions among the semi-hard partons are treated by considering the elasti...
متن کاملPre-equilibrium evolution of quark-gluon plasma
We study the production and the evolution of quark-gluon plasma expected to be formed in ultra relativistic heavy-ion collisions, within the color fluxtube model. We introduce the gluonic component in the Boltzmann equation, which we solve in the phase space which is extended to include the SU(3) color degree of freedom. The color degree of freedom is shown to play a decisive role in equilibrat...
متن کاملProduction and Equilibration of the Quark-Gluon Plasma with Chromoelectric Field and Minijets
Production and equilibration of quark-gluon plasma are studied within the color flux-tube model, at the RHIC and LHC energies. Non-Abelian relativistic transport equations for quarks, antiquarks and gluons, are solved in the extended phase space which includes coordinates, momenta and color. Before the chromoelectric field is formed, hard and semihard partons are produced via minijets which pro...
