Initial conditions for hydrodynamics: implications for phenomenology
We present a description of the early-stage dynamics in relativistic heavy ion collisions, where the free-streaming (FS) of partons is followed by a sudden equilibration (SE) to a thermalized phase, providing initial conditions for the subsequent hydrodynamic evolution. This FS+SE approximation has been proposed by Kolb, Sollfrank, and Heinz [1]. It has been further discussed in the context of ...
متن کاملHydrodynamics of Nuclear Collisions with Initial Conditions from Perturbative Qcd
We compute the longitudinal hydrodynamic flow in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions at √ s = 5500 GeV by using boost non-invariant initial conditions following from perturbative QCD. The transfer of entropy and energy from the central region to larger rapidities caused by boost non-invariance is determined and the associated decrease in the lifetime of the system is estimated. kari.eskola@c...
متن کاملHydrodynamics and the fluctuation theorem.
The fluctuation theorem is a pivotal result of statistical physics. It quantifies the probability of observing fluctuations which are in violation of the second law of thermodynamics. More specifically, it quantifies the ratio of the probabilities of observing entropy-producing and entropy-consuming fluctuations measured over a finite volume and time span in terms of the rate of entropy product...
متن کاملCosmological Simulations with Scale-Free Initial Conditions I: Adiabatic Hydrodynamics
We analyze hierarchical structure formation based on scale-free initial conditions in an Einstein-de Sitter universe, including a baryonic component with Ωbary = 0.05. We present three independent, smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) simulations, performed at two resolutions (323 and 643 dark matter and baryonic particles), and with two different SPH codes (TreeSPH and P3MSPH). Each simulatio...
متن کاملInitial conditions for inflation
Free scalar fields in de Sitter space have a one-parameter family of states invariant under the de Sitter group, including the standard thermal vacuum. We show that, except for the thermal vacuum, these states are unphysical when gravitational interactions are included. We apply these observations to the quantum state of the inflaton, and find that at best, dramatic fine tuning is required for ...
