We study the diffusion properties of the strongly interacting quark-gluon plasma (sQGP) and evaluate the diffusion coefficient matrix for the baryon (B), strange (S) and electric (Q) charges—κqq′ (q,q′=B,S,Q) and show their dependence on temperature T and baryon chemical potential μB. The nonperturbative nature of the sQGP is evaluated within the dynamical quasiparticle model (DQPM) which is matched to reproduce the equation of state of the partonic matter above the deconfinement temperature Tc from lattice QCD. The calculation of diffusion coefficients is based on two methods: (i) the Chapman-Enskog method for the linearized Boltzmann equation, which allows to explore nonequilibrium corrections for the phase-space distribution function in leading order of the Knudsen numbers as well as (ii) the relaxation time approximation (RTA). In this work we explore the differences between the two methods. We find a good agreement with the available lattice QCD data in case of the electric charge diffusion coefficient (or electric conductivity) at vanishing baryon chemical potential as well as a qualitative agreement with the recent predictions from the holographic approach for all diagonal components of the diffusion coefficient matrix. The knowledge of the diffusion coefficient matrix is also of special interest for more accurate hydrodynamic simulations.
We study equilibrium as well as out-of-equilibrium properties of the strongly interacting QGP medium under extreme conditions of high temperature T and high baryon densities or baryon chemical potentials μB within a kinetic approach. We present the thermodynamic and transport properties of the QGP close to equilibrium in the framework of effective models with Nf=3 active quark flavours such as the Polyakov extended Nambu-Jona Lasinio (PNJL) and dynamical quasiparticle model with the CEP (DQPM-CP). Considering the transport coefficients and the EoS of the QGP phase, we compare our results with various results from the literature. Furthermore, out-of equilibrium properties of the QGP medium and in particular, the effect of a μB- dependence of thermodynamic and transport properties of the QGP are studied within the Parton-Hadron-String-Dynamics (PHSD) transport approach, which covers the full evolution of the system during HICs. We find that bulk observables and flow coefficients for strange hadrons as well as for antiprotons are more sensitive to the properties of the QGP, in particular to the μB - dependence of the QGP interactions.
We study the influence of the baryon chemical potential μB on the properties of the Quark–Gluon–Plasma (QGP) in and out-of equilibrium. The description of the QGP in equilibrium is based on the effective propagators and couplings from the Dynamical QuasiParticle Model (DQPM) that is matched to reproduce the equation-of-state of the partonic system above the deconfinement temperature Tc from lattice Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). We study the transport coefficients such as the ratio of shear viscosity η and bulk viscosity ζ over entropy density s, i.e., η/s and ζ/s in the (T,μ) plane and compare to other model results available at μB=0 . The out-of equilibrium study of the QGP is performed within the Parton–Hadron–String Dynamics (PHSD) transport approach extended in the partonic sector by explicitly calculating the total and differential partonic scattering cross sections based on the DQPM and the evaluated at actual temperature T and baryon chemical potential μB in each individual space-time cell where partonic scattering takes place. The traces of their μB dependences are investigated in different observables for symmetric Au + Au and asymmetric Cu + Au collisions such as rapidity and mT -distributions and directed and elliptic flow coefficients v1,v2 in the energy range 7.7 GeV ≤sNN−−−−√≤200 GeV.
We extend the parton‐hadron‐string dynamics (PHSD) transport approach in the partonic sector by explicitly calculating the total and differential partonic scattering cross sections as a function of temperature T and baryon chemical potential μB on the basis of the effective propagators and couplings from the dynamical quasiparticle model (DQPM) that is matched to reproduce the equation of state of the partonic system above the deconfinement temperature Tc from lattice quantum chromodynamics (QCD). We calculate the collisional widths for the partonic degrees of freedom at finite T and μB in the time‐like sector and conclude that the quasiparticle limit holds sufficiently well. Furthermore, the ratio of shear viscosity η over entropy density s, that is, η/s, is evaluated using the collisional widths and compared to lattice QCD(lQCD) calculations for μB = 0 as well. We find that the ratio η/s does not differ very much from that calculated within the original DQPM on the basis of the Kubo formalism. Furthermore, there is only a very modest change of η/s with the baryon chemical μB as a function of the scaled temperature T/Tc(μB). This also holds for a variety of hadronic observables from central A + A collisions in the energy range 5 GeV urn:x-wiley:00046337:media:asna201913708:asna201913708-math-0001 200 GeV when implementing the differential cross sections into the PHSD approach. Accordingly, it will be difficult to extract finite μB signals from the partonic dynamics based on “bulk” observables.
We review the properties of the strongly interacting quark-gluon plasma (QGP) at finite temperature T and baryon chemical potential µB as created in heavy-ion collisions at ultrarelativistic energies. The description of the strongly interacting (non-perturbative) QGP in equilibrium is based on the effective propagators and couplings from the Dynamical QuasiParticle Model (DQPM) that is matched to reproduce the equation-of-state of the partonic system above the deconfinement temperature Tc from lattice QCD. Based on a microscopic transport description of heavy-ion collisions, we discuss which observables are sensitive to the QGP creation and its properties.
