Measuring shear viscosity using transverse momentum correlations in relativistic nuclear collisions.
Elliptic flow measurements at the Brookhaven National Laboratory Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider suggest that quark-gluon fluid flows with very little viscosity compared to weak-coupling expectations, challenging theorists to explain why this fluid is so nearly "perfect." It is therefore vital to find quantitative experimental information on the viscosity of the fluid. We propose that measureme...
متن کاملEstimation of shear viscosity based on transverse momentum correlations
Event anisotropy measurements at RHIC suggest the strongly interacting matter created in heavy ion collisions flows with very little shear viscosity. Precise determination of “shear viscosityto-entropy” ratio is currently a subject of extensive study [1]. We present preliminary results of measurements of the evolution of transverse momentum correlation function with collision centrality of Au +...
متن کاملMicro-Viscometer for Measuring Shear-Varying Blood Viscosity over a Wide-Ranging Shear Rate
In this study, a micro-viscometer is developed for measuring shear-varying blood viscosity over a wide-ranging shear rate. The micro-viscometer consists of 10 microfluidic channel arrays, each of which has a different micro-channel width. The proposed design enables the retrieval of 10 different shear rates from a single flow rate, thereby enabling the measurement of shear-varying blood viscosi...
متن کاملUsing Intelligent Methods and Optimization of the Existing Empirical Correlations for Iranian Dead Oil Viscosity
Numerous empirical correlations exist for the estimation of crude oil viscosities. Most of these correlations are not based on the experimental and field data from Iranian geological zone. In this study several well-known empirical correlations including Beal, Beggs, Glasso, Labedi, Schmidt, Alikhan and Naseri were optimized and refitted with the Iranian oil field data. The results showed that ...
متن کاملShear viscosity of pion gas
Shear viscosity η is one of transport coefficients in fluid dynamics, which characterizes how viscous the system is in the presence of flow gradient [1]. Since, in general, shear viscosity is inversely proportional to scattering cross-section, strongly interacting systems have smaller viscosity than weakly interacting ones. Recently a universal minimum bound for the ratio of η to entropy densit...
