The latest experimental data from ALICE@LHC confirm that the hydrodynamic simulations of the ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions are very successful in describing these reactions. One of the most important elements of such a hydrodynamic model is the initial state for further hydro evolution. Unfortunately at the moment there is no unambiguous model describing the initial states of...

The quark-gluon plasma at the early stage of relativistic heavy-ion collisions is strongly anisotropic. We systematically study spectrum of collective excitations of such a plasma which is a fundamental characteristic of any many-body system. We demonstrate how the spectrum evolves when the momentum distribution of plasma constituents changes from the extremely prolate – infinitely elongated...

We will present ECHO-QGP (Eulerian conservative higher-order
code for QGP), a new (3+1)-dimensional numerical code developed by our team, implementing second-order relativistic viscous hydrodynamics
and conceived for the study of the Quark-Gluon Plasma created in heavy ion collisions. ECHO-QGP features second-order treatment of causal relativistic viscous effects both in Minkowski and in...

An updated version of the partonic transport model Boltzmann Approach to MultiParton Scatterings (BAMPS) is presented, which allows interactions among all partons: gluons, light quarks, and heavy quarks with elastic and inelastic collisions. We introduce the improved Gunion-Bertsch matrix element, which cures problems of the original Gunion-Bertsch result in characteristic regions of the phase...
