abstract

This work presents the first Bayesian inference study of the (3+1)D dynamics of relativistic heavy-ion collisions and Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) viscosities using an event-by-event (3+1)D hydrodynamics + hadronic transport theoretical framework and data from the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) Beam Energy Scan program. Robust constraints on initial state nuclear stopping and the baryon chemical potential-dependent shear viscosity of the produced quantum chromodynamic (QCD) matter are obtained. The specific bulk viscosity of the QCD matter is found to exhibit a preferred maximum around $\sqrt{s_\mathrm{NN}} = 19.6$ GeV. This result allows for the alternative interpretation of a reduction (and/or increase) of the speed of sound relative to that of the employed lattice-QCD based equation of state (EOS) for net baryon chemical potential $\mu_B \sim 0.2\, (0.4)$ GeV.

  1. Longitudinal Dynamics of Large and Small Systems from a 3D Bayesian Calibration of RHIC Top-energy Collision Data

    nucl-ex 2026-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A 3D Bayesian calibration of RHIC Au-Au and d-Au data constrains the longitudinal initial state and QGP viscosity, and its posterior predicts p-Au and 3He-Au flow measurements.

  2. A Resummed Hydrodynamic Description of Relativistic Heavy-ion Collisions

    nucl-th 2025-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A resummed hydrodynamic scheme with tunable caps on shear and bulk viscous stress is introduced; it reduces to standard second-order hydrodynamics for small stresses and is used to quantify flow-observable uncertainti...

  3. Collision energy dependence in heavy ion collisions from nonlinear QCD evolution

    nucl-th 2025-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    JIMWLK evolution of the nuclear initial state flattens the centrality dependence of multiplicity and lowers mean transverse momentum, improving data agreement at LHC energies.

  4. Study the Longitudinal Entropy Deposition using d+Au Collision

    nucl-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A 3D entropy deposition model with β≈0.35 and n_BC-dependent rapidity loss, plus ab initio deuteron sampling, reproduces d+Au dNch/dη, spectra, and vn and transfers to p+Au, 3He+Au, and Au+Au.

  5. Nuclear Physics Confronts Relativistic Collisions Of Isobars

    nucl-ex 2025-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    RHIC isobar data are explained by different shapes of 96Ru and 96Zr, with 96Zr showing a large octupole deformation, so nuclear structure uncertainty, not the magnetic field, dominates the observed ratios.
