Description

We compute the heavy quark momentum diffusion coefficient during the initial nonequilibrium evolution using QCD effective kinetic theory after an ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collision. We observe that the diffusion coefficient approaches its thermal value during the hydrodynamization process. We also give an introduction to thermalization/hydrodynamization in the weak coupling framework.
