Energy Momentum Tensor for Ideal Fluids

T µν symmetric tensor of rank two building blocks for ideal fluids: scalars ǫ, p, vector uµ, tensors of rank two: uµuν, gµν T µν must be of form T µν = A(ǫ, p)uµuν + B(ǫ, p)gµν Local rest frame (vanishing fluid velocity, uµ = (1, 0, 0, 0)): T µν =     ǫ −p −p −p     Can use to determine A, B !

Proof

Take ∂µT µi = 0, take non-relativistic limit (neglect u2/c2 ≪ 1, p ≪ mc2): ∂tui + um∂mui = −1 ǫ ∂jδijp

“Euler Equation” [L. Euler, 1755]

Euler Equation: non-linear, non-dissipative: “ideal fluid dynamics” Take ∂µT µ0 = 0, take non-relativistic limit (neglect u/c ≪ 1, p ≪ mc2): ǫ∂iui + ∂tǫ + ui∂iǫ = 0

Relativistic Viscous Fluids

How to include viscous effects? Energy and Momentum Conservation: ∂µT µν = 0 is exact But T µν = T µν

id is approximation!

Lift approximation: T µν = T µν

id + Πµν

Build Πµν: e.g. first order gradients on ǫ, uµ, gµν Πµν = η∇<µuν> + ζ∆µν∇ · u

Hydrodynamcis: Limits of Applicability

Remember T µν = T µν

id + Πµν

Πµν is given by small gradient expansion Πµν = η∇<µuν> + . . . Hydrodynamics breaks down if gradient expansion breaks down: Π ∼ T µν

id or

p ≃ η∇ · u Two possible ways: η large (hadron gas!) or ∇ · u large (early times, small systems!)

Hydro Theory

What you should remember: Hydrodynamics is Energy Momentum Conservation Hydrodynamics is an Effective Theory for long wavelength (small momenta) Hydrodynamics breaks down for small systems or dilute systems

Hydro Models for Heavy-Ion Collisions

Need initial conditions for Hydro: ǫ, uµ at τ = τ0 Need equation of state p = p(ǫ), which gives c2

s = dp dǫ

Need functions for transport coefficients η, ζ. Need algorithm to solve (nonlinear!) hydro equations Need method to convert hydro information to particles (“freeze-out”)

Initial Conditions

IC’s for hydro not known. Here are some popular choices: Fluid velocities are set to zero Boost-invariance: all hydro quantities only depend on proper time τ = √ t2 − z2 and transverse space x⊥. Models for energy density distribution: Glauber/Color-Glass-Condensate Starting time τ0: Should be of order 1 fm, precise value unknown

Thermalization

How does system get T µν that is close to hydro? Far from equilibration dynamics: non-perturbative, real-time: hard! Attempts to thermalization: pQCD inspired (’plasma instabilities’); AdS/CFT inspired (’collision of shock waves’)

Things to keep in mind for this week

Dynamics: anything less than 2+1D is not realistic (’Bjorken hydro’) Ideal hydro does not indicate its own breakdown. Does not mean results are accurate! Keep in mind that ideal hydro only exists with numerical viscosity (value?) All working 2+1D viscous hydro codes are ’second order hydro’ Different names (’Israel-Stewart’, ’full IS’, ’BRSSS’) correspond to different choices for values of τπ, . . .

Paul Romatschke Hydro/HIC

slide-44
SLIDE 44

A personal appeal: theory/data comparisons

A new theorists calculation/model should first be rigorously studied before ’fitting’ data Example: hydrodynamic calculations on a grid; physical results correspond to limit of vanishing grid spacing Theorists: Please first check your model/calculation before you compare to experimental data Experimentalists: Please don’t blindly trust (or promote!) a model just because it fits data
