7 Hadronic models for light vector mesons Hendrik van Hees (GU Frankfurt/FIAS) Hadrons in hot and dense matter IV July 17-1, 17 7 / 58

8 Realistic hadronic models for light vector mesons many approaches gauged linear σ-model + vector-meson dominance [Pis95, UBW] gauge-symmetry breaking pions still in physical spectrum! massive Yang-Mills model; gauged non-linear chiral model with explicitly broken gauge symmetry [Mei88, LSY95] hidden local symmetry: Higgs-like chiral model [BKU + 85, HY3] allows for vector manifestation or usual manifestation (with a 1 ) here we concentrate on the phenomenological model by Rapp, Wambach, et al [RW99a, RG99, RW] Hendrik van Hees (GU Frankfurt/FIAS) Hadrons in hot and dense matter IV July 17-1, 17 8 / 58

19 Bulk evolution with transport and coarse graining established transport models for bulk evolution e.g., UrQMD, GiBUU, BAMPS, (p)hsd,... solve Boltzmann equation for hadrons and/or partons dilemma: need medium-modified dilepton/photon emission rates usually available only in equilibrium QFT calculations ways out: use (ideal) hydrodynamics local thermal equilibrium use equilibrium rates use transport-hydro hybrid model: treat early stage with transport, then coarse grain switch to hydro switch back to transport (Cooper-Frye particlization ) here: UrQMD transport for entire bulk evolution use coarse graining in space-time cells extract T, µ B, µ π,... use equilibrium rates locally Hendrik van Hees (GU Frankfurt/FIAS) Hadrons in hot and dense matter IV July 17-1, / 58

20 Coarse-grained UrQMD (CGUrQMD) problem with medium modifications of spectral functions/interactions only available in equilibrium many-body QFT models use in-medium cross sections naively: double counting?!? way out: map transport to local-equilibrium fluid use ensemble of UrQMD runs with an equation of state space-time grid with t =. fm/c, x =.8 fm fit temperature, chemical potentials, flow-velocity field from anisotropic energy-momentum tensor [FMRS13] T µν = (ε + P )u µ u ν P g µν (P P )V µ V ν thermal rates from partonic/hadronic QFT become applicable here: extrapolated lattice QGP and Rapp-Wambach HMBT caveat: consistency between EoS, matter content of QFT model/urqmd!
