Description
We discuss the energy momentum tensor of the gluon field created in high energy collisions of nuclei at early times. We show how early radial and directed flow are created as a consequence of the non-abelian Gauss, Ampere and Faraday Laws. We find that even in a boost-invariant setup the global structure of the event is non-trivial and exhibits angular momentum. We conclude with a discussion of possible observable consequences.
