Abstract

As RHIC is entering the precision measurement era and the LHC is producing a copious amount of new data, the role of 3+1D event-by-event viscous hydrodynamics is more important than ever to understand the bulk data as well as providing the background for hard probes. For more meaningful comparison with the experimental data, it is also important that hydrodynamics be coupled to the hadronic afterburner. In this proceeding we report on preliminary results of coupling MUSIC with UrQMD.
