Description

The intention of this study is the search for signatures of the chiral phase transition and the impact of non-equilibrium effects. To investiage the impact of fluctuations, e.g. on the baryon density, near the chritical point or the chiral phase transition of QCD, we developed a 3+1D numerical, non-equilibrium simulation of an effective linear sigma model. Chiral fields are approximated as classical fields, quarks are described by quasi-particles via a Vlasov equation. For additional dynamics, kinetic quark-quark and chemical quark-sigma interactions have been implemented. The challenge is the consistent description of hard interactions between particles and classical fields. Therefore a new Monte-Carlo-Langevin-like formalism has been developed and is discussed.
