1 Hints of incomplete thermalization in RHIC data Nicolas BORGHINI CERN in collaboration with R.S. BHALERAO Mumbai J.-P. BLAIZOT ECT J.-Y. OLLITRAULT Saclay N. BORGHINI p.1/30
2 RHIC Au Au results: the fashionable view Ideal fluid dynamics reproduce both p t spectra and elliptic flow v 2 (p t ) of soft (p t 2 GeV/c) identified particles for minimum bias collisions, near central rapidity. This agreement necessitates a soft equation of state, and very short thermalization times: τ thermalization < 0.6 fm/c. strongly interacting Quark-Gluon Plasma N. BORGHINI p.2/30
3 Ideal fluid dynamics in heavy-ion collisions A few reminders on fluid dynamics Fluid dynamics in heavy ion collisions: theory Overall scenario General predictions of ideal fluid dynamics Anisotropic flow Fluid dynamics and heavy ion collisions: theory vs. data Reconciling data and theory (?) (including predictions for Cu Cu@RHIC and Pb Pb@LHC) R.S. Bhalerao, J.-P. Blaizot, N.B., J.-Y. Ollitrault, nucl-th/ N. BORGHINI p.3/30
4 Fluid dynamics: various types of flow Thermodynamic equilibrium? mean free path 3 Knudsen number Kn = λ system size L Kn 1: Free-streaming limit Kn 1: Thermalization: Fluid (hydro) limit Reynolds number Re = Lv fluid viscosity η Re 1: Ideal (non-viscous) flow η λc s Re 1: Viscous flow Viscous or Ideal? Mach number Ma = v fluid speed of sound c s Ma 1: Incompressible flow Ma > 1: Compressible (supersonic) flow Compressible or Incompressible? N. BORGHINI p.4/30
5 Fluid dynamics: various types of flow Three numbers: Kn = λ L, Re = Lv fluid η, Ma = v fluid c s an important relation: Kn Re = λv fluid η v fluid c s = Ma Compressible fluid: Thermalized means Ideal Viscosity departure from equilibrium N. BORGHINI p.5/30
6 Ideal fluid picture of a heavy-ion collision 0. Creation of a dense gas of particles 1. At some time τ 0, the mean free path λ is much smaller than all dimensions in the system thermalization (T 0 ), ideal fluid dynamics applies 2. The fluid expands: density decreases, λ increases (system size also) 3. At some time, the mean free path is of the same order as the system size: ideal fluid dynamics is no longer valid (kinetic) freeze-out Freeze-out usually parameterized in terms of a temperature T f.o. If λ varies smoothly with temperature, consistency requires T f.o. T 0 analytical predictions, see N.B. & J.-Y. Ollitrault, nucl-th/ N. BORGHINI p.6/30

31 Anisotropic flow vs. number of collisions Kn 1 An exact computation of the dependence of v 2, v 4 on the number of collisions per particle Kn 1 requires some cascade model but we can guess the general tendency! in the absence of reinteractions (Kn 1 = 0), no flow develops the more collisions, the larger the anisotropic flow for a given number of collisions, the system thermalizes: further collisions no longer increase v 2 v 2 fully thermalized (hydro) incomplete thermalization 1 1 Kn N.

BORGHINI p.17/30
33 Incomplete equilibration & RHIC data [1] v 4 Ideal fluid dynamics predicts (v 2 ) 2 = 1, RHIC data are above ( 1.2) 2 increase can be explained by incomplete equilibration naturally: v n proportional to the number of collisions Kn 1 v 4 (v 2 ) 2 1 v 2 fully thermalized (hydro) Kn 1 1 incomplete thermalization Kn 1 v 4 2 v 2 1/2 v 4 1 Kn 1 1 Kn 1 N. BORGHINI p.18/30

39 Reconciling data and theory In hydrodynamical fits, the speed of sound is constrained by p t spectra, which require a soft equation of state with a hard equation of state, the energy per particle is too high All relies on the assumption that the energy per particle is related to the density, i.e., that chemical equilibrium is maintained chemical equilibrium is more fragile than kinetic equilibrium the only experimental indication of chemical equilibrium is in the particle-abundance ratios (cf. however e + e... ) If there is no chemical equilibrium, energy per particle and density are independent variables, as in ordinary thermodynamics there is no constraint on the equation of state from p t spectra: one can consider a larger c s to increase v 2 in central collisions N. BORGHINI p.23/30
40 Incomplete equilibration: predictions for Cu Cu flow The matching between central SPS and peripheral RHIC suggests that we can even compare systems with different densities, i.e., different σ (and c s ) compare Au Au at b = 8 fm with Cu Cu at b = 5.5 fm (similar centrality) If hydro holds, v 2 should scale like ɛ: v 2 (Cu) = 0.69 v 2 (Au) If thermalization is incomplete, v 2 ɛ 1 S v 2 (Cu) = 0.34 v 2 (Au) dn dy Kn 1, i.e. Cu Cu further from equilibrium than Au Au v 4 (v 2 ) 2 > 1.2 N.

N. BORGHINI p.27/30
44 Predictions for LHC Measuring anisotropic flow at LHC, you will find v 2 larger than at RHIC (getting closer to thermalization) ɛ larger signal, larger statistics easier measurement v 4 (v 2 ) 2 smaller than at RHIC (closer to the ideal fluid value 1 2 ) Well... that definitely means a smaller signal... Smaller systems yield complementary values of 1 dn S dy Kn 1, allowing checks (thermalization or not? onset of equilibration?) N. BORGHINI p.28/30

46 Methods of flow analysis Anisotropic flow is usually measured using two-particle correlations: cos 2(φ 1 φ 2 ) cos 2(φ 1 Φ R ) cos 2(Φ R φ 2 ) = (v 2 ) 2 Assumption: all two-particle correlations are due to flow which is obviously wrong! Non-flow sources of correlations: jets, decays of short-lived particles, global momentum conservation, quantum effects between identical particles, etc. can bias the standard flow analysis The bias is comparatively larger for smaller systems New methods for measuring flow have been developed cumulants of multiparticle correlations, Lee Yang zeroes (N.B., P.M.
