High-energy nuclear collisions exhibit collective flow, which emerges as a dynamical response of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) to initial state geometry collision. Collective flow in heavy-ion is usually described within multistage evolution models, employ viscous relativistic hydrodynamic description space-time QGP.

For such are ill-defined everywhere, but an appropriate vacuum gives regular inside speed-of-light surface. a massless field, we derive analytic expressions expectation values current stress-energy tensor.

We employ an effective kinetic description, based on the Boltzmann equation in relaxation time approximation, to study space-time dynamics and development of transverse flow small large collision systems. By combining analytical insights opacity limit with numerical simulations at larger opacities, we are able describe from very opacities. Surprisingly, find that deviations between theory hydrodynamics persist even which can be attributed presence early preequilibrium phase.

We consider the evolution equations for bulk viscous pressure, diffusion current, and shear tensor derived within second-order relativistic dissipative hydrodynamics from kinetic theory. By matching higher-order moments directly to quantities, all terms which are of second order in Knudsen number Kn vanish, leaving only $\mathcal{O}({\mathrm{Re}}^{\ensuremath{-}1}\mathrm{Kn})$ $\mathcal{O}({\mathrm{Re}}^{\ensuremath{-}2})$ relaxation equations, where ${\mathrm{Re}}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$ is...

Helicity of free massless Dirac fermions is a conserved, Lorentz-invariant quantity at the level classical equations motion. For generic ensemble consisting particles and antiparticles, helical chiral charges are different conserved quantities. The flow helicity can be modelled by current, which again in absence interactions. Similar to axial vortical effect generates an (chiral) current induced vorticity finite temperature medium with vector (electrical) charge imbalance via effects,...

In the present study, we investigate properties of an ensemble free Dirac fermions, at finite inverse temperature $\beta$ and chemical potential $\mu$, undergoing rigid rotation with imaginary angular velocity $\Omega_I$. Our purpose is to establish analytical structure such states, as well prospects (and dangers) extrapolating results obtained under case real rotation. We show that in thermodynamic limit, state system akin a stationary modified $\beta_q = q\beta$ same potential, where $q$...

Exploiting the first measurements of same ion species in OO collisions at Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and LHC, we propose an observable to distinguish whether collective behavior builds up through a hydrodynamic expansion strongly interacting quark-gluon plasma or few final state rescatterings. Our procedure allows one disentangle effects initial geometry dynamical response mechanism on anisotropic flow. We validate its ability discriminate between systems with different...
