### Rapidity profiles from 3+1D Glasma simulations with finite longitudinal thickness

• Physics
• 2017
We present our progress on simulating the Glasma in the early stages of heavy ion collisions in a non-boost-invariant setting. Our approach allows us to describe colliding nuclei with finite

We simulate the 3+1 D classical Yang-Mills dynamics of the collisions of longitudinally extended nuclei, described by eikonal color charges in the Color Glass Condensate framework. By varying the

### Simulations of the Glasma in 3+1D.

The Glasma is a gluonic state of matter which can be created in collisions of relativistic heavy ions and is a precursor to the quark-gluon plasma. The existence of this state is a prediction of the

Abstract We extract the heavy-quark diffusion coefficient κ and the resulting momentum broadening 〈p2〉 in a far-from-equilibrium non-Abelian plasma. We find several features in the time dependence

Nuclear collisions at high energies produce a gluon field that can be described using the Colour Glass Condensate (CGC) effective theory at proper times $$\tau \lesssim 1$$ τ ≲ 1  fm. The theory can

The production of high transverse momentum gluons in the McLerran-Venugopalan model of nuclear structure functions is considered and the nuclear target size dependence of the distribution of produced glUons is computed.

There is a solution of the equations of motion for the two nucleus scattering problem where the fields are time and rapidity independent before the collision and after the collision the solution depends on proper time, but is independent of rapidity.
