Marco-Antonio Tangaro (Universita e INFN (IT))24/09/2014, 09:05Correlations and fluctuationsExperimentalStrong event-by-event fluctuations in the energy density of heavy-ion collisions have been recently observed with ALICE, with the measurement of non-zero odd harmonic anisotropic flow coefficients. This measurement suggests the possibility to select different event shapes for a definite centrality and colliding system. The event selection is based on the azimuthal distribution of produced...Go to contribution page

Takafumi Niida (University of Tsukuba (JP))24/09/2014, 09:25Relativistic hydrodynamic and collective phenomenaExperimentalThe higher order flow anisotropies (v_{n}) are considered to be originated from initial geometrical fluctuation of participating nucleons followed by the collective expansion of the hot and dense medium created in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. The source geometry with possible fluctuation at the end of the expansion would depend on the magnitude of the initial fluctuation, the strength of...Go to contribution page

Zhenyu Chen (Rice University (US))24/09/2014, 09:45Correlations and fluctuationsExperimentalObservation of a long-range near-side two-particle correlation (known as the "Ridge") in high-multiplicity pp and pPb collisions opened up new opportunities of exploring novel QCD dynamics in small collision systems. To further investigate the origin of this phenomenon, studies of two-particle correlations with identified $K^0_s$ and Lambda trigger particles in 5.02 TeV pPb collisions are...Go to contribution page

Dr Volodymyr Konchakovski (Institute for Theoretical Physics, Giessen University)24/09/2014, 10:35Relativistic hydrodynamic and collective phenomenaTheoryWe analyze recent STAR data for the directed flow of protons, antiprotons and charged pions obtained within the beam energy scan program within the Parton-Hadron-String-Dynamics (PHSD) transport model and a 3-Fluid hydroDynamics (3FD) approach. We clarify the role of partonic degrees of freedom in the the kinetic PHSD approach. The PHSD results, simulating a partonic phase and its...Go to contribution page

Leonardo Tinti (Jan Kochanowski University)24/09/2014, 10:55Relativistic hydrodynamic and collective phenomenaTheorySuccessful applications of relativistic viscous hydrodynamics in the description of heavy-ion collisions at RHIC and the LHC triggered large interest in the development of the hydrodynamic framework. An example of the new approach to relativistic dissipative hydrodynamics is anisotropic hydrodynamics --- the framework where effects connected with the expected high pressure anisotropy of the...Go to contribution page

Zuzana Feckova24/09/2014, 11:15Relativistic hydrodynamic and collective phenomenaTheoryWe present a new algorithm for solving ideal relativistic hydrodynamics based on Godunov method with exact solution of Riemann problem with an arbitrary equation of state. Standard numerical tests are executed, such as sound wave propagation and schock tube problem. Low numerical viscosity and high precision are attained with proper discretization.Go to contribution page
