    Relativistic hydrodynamic and collective phenomena
    Theory
    We solve the one-dimensional boost-invariant kinetic equation for a relativistic massive system with the collision term treated in the relaxation time approximation. The result is an exact integral equation which can be solved numerically by the method of iteration to arbitrary precision. We compare predictions for the shear and bulk viscosities of a massive system with those...

    Relativistic hydrodynamic and collective phenomena
    Theory
    The study of transport coefficients of strongly interacting matter has generated a great interest in the research for Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) in Heavy Ion Collisions at relativistic energy. In this work we compute shear viscosity and electric conductivity of QGP exploring a quasiparticle model settled to correctly account for the thermodynamics of Lattice QCD. We compare Relaxation Time...

    Relativistic hydrodynamic and collective phenomena
    Theory
    Experimental and theoretical studies of relativistic heavy-ion collisions showed that the behavior of matter produced in such collisions is very well described within viscous hydrodynamic models. However, due to rapid longitudinal expansion in the early stages of evolution of matter the studied system undergoes substantial pressure anisotropies, which often may lead to unphysical results. In...

    Correlations and fluctuations
    Experimental
    Femtoscopy analysis allows us to extract information about the properties of source emitting particles of different types. From "classical analysis" of two correlated pions one can calculated source sizes, however, from the non-identical particle correlations, e.g. pion-kaon femtoscopy, one can obtain information not only about source size but about asymmetry in emission processes of...

    QCD at high temperature/density and LQCD
    Experimental
    ALICE is a general-purpose heavy-ion experiment able to identify particles over a wide momentum range thanks to its excellent vertexing and tracking performance, its low material budget and its possibility to combine different Particle IDentification (PID) techniques. In this talk the transverse momentum ($p_{\rm{T}}$) spectra of identified light flavour particles in pp and Pb-Pb collisions...

    Correlations and fluctuations
    Experimental
    The main goal of the ALICE experiment is to investigate the properties of the strongly interacting matter formed in heavy-ion collisions, where a Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) is produced. Heavy quarks (charm and beauty) are excellent probes to study this state of matter. Due to their large masses these quarks are produced in hard partonic scattering processes in the initial stages of the collision...
