Thermalization of gluons at RHIC: Dependence on initial conditions
We investigate how thermalization of gluons depends on the initial conditions assumed in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions at RHIC. The study is based on simulations employing the pQCD inspired parton cascade solving the Boltzmann equation for gluons. We consider independently produced minijets with pT > p0 = 1.3 ∼ 2.0 GeV and a color glass condensate as possible initial conditions for the...
متن کاملEffects of the interplay between initial state and Hamiltonian on the thermalization of isolated quantum many-body systems.
We explore the role of the initial state on the onset of thermalization in isolated quantum many-body systems after a quench. The initial state is an eigenstate of an initial Hamiltonian H(I) and it evolves according to a different final Hamiltonian H(F). If the initial state has a chaotic structure with respect to H(F), i.e., if it fills the energy shell ergodically, thermalization is certain ...
متن کاملChaos and quantum thermalization.
We show that a bounded, isolated quantum system of many particles in a specific initial state will approach thermal equilibrium if the energy eigenfunctions which are superposed to form that state obey Berry’s conjecture. Berry’s conjecture is expected to hold only if the corresponding classical system is chaotic, and essentially states that the energy eigenfunctions behave as if they were gaus...
متن کاملPreheating, Thermalization and Supergravity
This constribution collects new recent results on preheating after inflation. We discuss tachyonic preheating in the SUSY motivated hybrid inflation; development of equilibrium after preheating; theory of fermionic preheating and the problem of gravitino overproduction from preheating.
متن کاملEigenstate thermalization hypothesis and quantum Jarzynski relation for pure initial states.
Since the first suggestion of the Jarzynski equality many derivations of this equality have been presented in both the classical and the quantum context. While the approaches and settings differ greatly from one another, they all appear to rely on the condition that the initial state is a thermal Gibbs state. Here, we present an investigation of work distributions in driven isolated quantum sys...
