Description
We numerically solve 2+1D effective kinetic theory of weak coupling QCD under longitudinal
expansion relevant for early stages of heavy-ion collisions. We find agreement with viscous hydrodynamics and classical Yang-Mills simulations in the regimes where they are applicable. With a reasonable initial condition for the anisotropic system in the heavy ion collisions, we found that the system is approximately described by viscous hydrodynamics well before τ ~ 1.0 fm/c.
