Why Hydrodynamics?
• Goal: To understand the hot QCD matter under
equilibrium.
• Lattice QCD is not able to describe dynamics in
heavy ion collisions.
• Analyze heavy ion reaction based on a model
with an assumption of local equilibrium, and see
what happens and whether it is consistent with
data.
• If consistent, it would be a starting point of the
physics of hot QCD matter under equilibrium.

PART 2
Collective Flow
Sufficient Energy Density?
Bjorken(’83)
Bjorken energy density
total energy
(observables)
t: proper time
y: rapidity
R: effective transverse radius
mT: transverse mass
Critical Energy Density from Lattice
Adopted from
Karsch(PANIC05)
Note that recent results seem to be Tc~190MeV.
Centrality Dependence of Energy
Density
Well above ec
from lattice in
central collision
at RHIC, if
assuming
t=1fm/c.
ec from lattice
PHENIX(’05)
STAR(’08)
Caveats (I)
• Just a necessary condition in the sense
that temperature (or pressure) is not
measured.
• How to estimate tau?
• If the system is thermalized, the actual
energy density is larger due to pdV work.
Gyulassy, Matsui(’84) Ruuskanen(’84)
• Boost invariant?
• Averaged over transverse area. Effect of
thickness? How to estimate area?
Matter in (Chemical) Equilibrium?
direct
Resonance decay
Two fitting parameters: Tch, mB
Amazing Fit!
T=177MeV, mB = 29 MeV
Close to Tc from lattice
Caveats (II)
• Even e+e- or pp data can be fitted
well!
See, e.g., Becattini&Heinz(’97)
• What is the meaning of fitting
parameters?
See, e.g., Rischke(’02),Koch(’03)
• Why so close to Tc?
 No chemical eq. in hadron phase!?
 Essentially dynamical problem!
Expansion rate  Scattering rate
see, e.g., U.Heinz, nucl-th/0407067
Recent example
Just a fitting parameter?
Where is the region in which we can believe
these results as “temperature” and “chemical
potential”.

O.Barannikova,
(QM05)
Power law in pp & dAu
Convex to Power law
in Au+Au
•“Consistent” with
thermal + boost
picture
•Large pressure
could be built up in
AA collisions
Caveats (III)
•Flow reaches 50-60% of speed of light!?
•Radial flow even in pp?
•How does freezeout happen dynamically?
STAR, white paper(’05)
Basic Checks  Necessary
Conditions to Study the QGP at RHIC
• Energy density can be well above ec.
– Thermalized?
• “Temperature” can be extracted.
– Why freezeout happens so close to
Tc?
• High pressure can be built up.
– Completely equilibrated?

Interaction points of participants vary
event by event.
 Apparent reaction plane also varies.
 The effect is relatively large for smaller
system such as Cu+Cu collisions
Kolb and Heinz (’03)
Elliptic Flow in Hydro

femto-meters
v2 signal is sensitive to
initial stage.
Response of the system
(= v2/e) is almost
constant.

Intermediate stage:
Hydrodynamics can be valid
as far as local thermalization is
achieved.  Need EOS P(e,n)
Initial stage:
Particle production,
pre-thermalization?
 Instead, initial conditions
for hydro simulations
Main Ingredient: Equation of State
P.Kolb and U.Heinz(’03)
Typical EOS in hydro models
EOS I
Ideal massless free gas
EOS H
Hadron resonance gas
EOS Q
QGP: P=(e-4B)/3
Hadron: Resonance gas
Latent heat
Note: Chemically frozen hadronic EOS is
needed to reproduce heavy particle yields.

2. Is mass ordering for v2(pT) a signal
of the perfect QGP fluid?
Pion
20-30%
Proton
Two neglected effects in hydro:
chemical freezeout and hadronic
dissipation
Mass dependence is o.k. from
hydro+cascade.
Mass ordering comes from
rescattering effect. Interplay btw.
radial and elliptic flows
Not a direct sign of the perfect
QGP fluid
3. Is viscosity really small in QGP?
•1+1D Bjorken flow Bjorken(’83)
Baym(’84)Hosoya,Kajantie(’85)Danielewicz,Gyulassy(’85)Gavin(’85)Akase et al.(’89)Kouno et al.(’90)…
(Ideal)
(Viscous)
h : shear viscosity (MeV/fm2), s : entropy density (1/fm3)
h/s is a good dimensionless measure
(in the natural unit) to see viscous effects.
Shear viscosity is small in comparison with entropy density!
Quiz: Which has larger viscosity
at room temperature, water or air?
[Pa] = [N/m2]
(Dynamical) Viscosity h:
~1.0x10-3 [Pa s] (Water 20℃)
~1.8x10-5 [Pa s] (Air 20℃)
Kinetic Viscosity n=h/r:
~1.0x10-6 [m2/s] (Water 20℃)
~1.5x10-5 [m2/s] (Air 20℃)
hwater > hair BUT nwater < nair
Non-relativistic Navier-Stokes eq. (a simple form)
Neglecting external force and assuming incompressibility.
4. Is h/s enough?
•Reynolds number
Iso, Mori, Namiki (’59)
R>>1
Perfect fluid
•(1+1)D Bjorken solution
5. Boltzmann at work?

reduction
s ~ 15 * spert !
Caveat 1: Where is the “dilute” approximation in Boltzmann
simulation? Is l~0.1fm o.k. for the Boltzmann description?
Caveat 2: Differential v2 is tricky. dv2/dpT~v2/<pT>.
Difference of v2 is amplified by the difference of <pT>.
Caveat 3: Hadronization/Freezeout are different.
6. Does v2(pT) really tell us smallness
of h/s in the QGP phase?
D.Teaney(’03)

Not a result from dynamical calculation, but a “fitting” to data.
No QGP in the model
t0 is not a initial time, but a freeze-out time.
Gs/t0 is not equal to h/s, but to 3h/4sT0t0 (in 1+1D).
Being smaller T0 from pT dist., t0 should be larger (~10fm/c).
7. Initial condition is a unique?
Novel initial conditions
from Color Glass Condensate
lead to large eccentricity.
Hirano and Nara(’04), Hirano et al.(’06)
Kuhlman et al.(’06), Drescher et al.(’06)
Need viscosity and/or softer EoS in the QGP!
Summary Slide @ QM2004
Summary So Far
• Interpretation of RHIC results involves many
subtle issues in hydrodynamic modeling of
reactions
• Three pillars: Glauber initial condition + Ideal
QGP + dissipative hadron gas
• Need to check each modeling to get
conclusive interpretation
• Next task: viscosity  Lecture on the 2nd day
