Hydrodynamic flow from RHIC to LHC

TL;DR

This paper discusses a hydrodynamic model for the expansion of fireballs in relativistic heavy-ion collisions, successfully describing experimental data from RHIC to LHC.

Contribution

It presents a relativistic hydrodynamic model with small viscosity that accurately reproduces key experimental observables across different collider energies.

Findings

Hydrodynamic model fits particle spectra data.

Model reproduces elliptic flow measurements.

Interferometry radii are well described by the model.

Abstract

The hydrodynamic model for the expansion of the fireball in relativistic heavy-ion collisions is presented. Calculations using relativistic hydrodynamics of a fluid with small viscosity yield a satisfactory description of the experimental data on the particle spectra, the elliptic flow or the interferometry radii.
