Description
Motivated by the apparent hydrodynamic behavior in small systems, we discuss the problem of matching hydrodynamic initial conditions to nucleon structure.
Conceptually, this opens a puzzle, since hydrodynamics is a classical theory, and fluctuating hydrodynamics is a stochastic theory, but nucleon 3D structure is a deeply quantum object, with the ingredients necessary for hydrodynamics not simultaneusly measurable.
We discuss different objects encoding entropy and energy-momentum density, and formulate a recipe by which a hydrodynamic initial condition can in principle be constructed.
