Possible Frictionless Regime for Ultra-High Temperature Amorphous Matter

TL;DR

This paper investigates the potential for frictionless transport states in ultra-high temperature amorphous matter, resembling the quark-gluon plasma, using theoretical models to understand conditions for perfect fluid behavior in heavy ion collisions.

Contribution

It introduces a transition-rate model combined with boundary perturbation to identify conditions for frictionless states in amorphous matter at extreme temperatures.

Findings

Possible frictionless states exist for certain activation parameters.

These states may relate to perfect fluid formation in RHIC collisions.

Similar scenarios are considered for LHC conditions.

Abstract

The almost frictionless transport of the very-high temperature amorphous matter which resembles the color glass condensate (possibly having much of their origin in the RHIC heavy ion collisions) in a confined annular tube with transversely corrugations is investigated by using the verified transition-rate model and boundary perturbation method. We found that for certain activation volume and energy there exist possible frictionless states which might be associated with the perfect fluid formation during the early expansion stage in RHIC Au+Au collisions. We also address the possible similar scenario in LHC Pb+Pb collisions considering the possible perfect fluid formation in ultra-high temperature transport of amorphous matter.
