abstract

We will show how both elliptic and radial flow generated during the first fm/c at RHIC can be expressed in a form which is quasi-independent of the state of matter and depends only on the initial energy density profile. Descriptions based on partons or classical fields, thermalized or highly anisotropic, all lead to the same collective velocity given a few easily satisfied conditions. This significantly narrows the uncertainty for initializing hydrodynamic prescriptions.

  • Generating Moving Field Initial Conditions with Spatially Varying Boost physics.comp-ph · 2025-06-28 · conditional · none · ref 45 · internal anchor

    A 'spatially varying boost' algorithm assigns arbitrary, position-dependent bulk velocities to field initial data by composing local Lorentz boosts, demonstrated on solitons, Proca fields, and spin-1 wave dark matter.
