Parallel session hydrodynamics
In hydrodynamic approach to heavy ion collisions, hadrons with nonzero spin produced out of the fluid can acquire polarization via spin-vorticity thermodynamic coupling mechanism [1]. The hydrodynamical quantity steering the polarization is the thermal vorticity, that is minus the antisymmetric part of the gradient of four-temperature field $\beta^\mu=u^\mu/T$.
Based on this idea, it has been...
Correlation measurements, such as the anisotropic flow, constrain the kinematic ($\eta/s$) and bulk ($\zeta/s$) viscosity of the quark-gluon plasma created in heavy-ion collisions, and give insight into the hadronization mechanisms. Particle production mechanisms can also be studied via other correlation techniques that can statistically separate the hadron production associated with a...
Event-by-event elliptic flow harmonic distributions $p(v_{2})$ are measured in PbPb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}} = 5.02$~TeV using the CMS detector for the integrated $p_{T}$ range $0.3 < p_{T} < 3.0$~GeV/$c$ and pseudorapidity range $\left| eta \right|<1.0$. In order to gain insight on the nature of the initial geometry fluctuations, cumulant flow harmonics are calculated from the moments of...
The measurement of heavy flavour production and collective flow is a powerful tool to study the properties of the high-density QCD medium created in heavy-ion collisions as heavy quarks are sensitive to the transport properties of the medium and may interact with the QCD matter differently from light quarks. In particular, the comparison between the nuclear modification factors (RAA) of light-...
