Description
We present a numerical code for modeling relativistic heavy ion
collisions, ECHO-QGP. The code includes relativistic hydrodynamics
with dissipative terms and implements Israel-Stewart theory
in 3+1 D. Initial conditions are provided through an implementation
of the Glauber model (both Optical and Monte Carlo), while freezeout
and particle generation is based on the Cooper-Frye prescription.
ECHO-QGP features dynamical metric tensor in a GR framework for
ideal hydro and it can work in Bjorken and cartesian frames for
the dissipative case. The code shows remarkable
stability and accuracy with the combination of a conservative
(shock-capturing) approach with the high-order methods. ECHO-QGP
is able to reproduce several known solutions of ideal and dissipative
hydrodynamics including the lately proposed Gubser test.
