   Abstract = {We make predictions for the kaon interferometry measurements
             in Au+Au collisions at the relativistic heavy ion collider
             (RHIC). A first-order phase transition from a thermalized
             quark-gluon plasma (QGP) to a gas of hadrons is assumed for
             the transport calculations. The fraction of kaons that are
             directly emitted from the phase boundary is considerably
             enhanced at large transverse momenta KT ∼ 1 GeV/c. In this
             kinematic region, the sensitivity of the Rout/Aside ratio to
             the QGP properties is enlarged. The results of the
             one-dimensional correlation analysis are presented. The
             extracted interferometry radii, depending on KT, are not
             unusually large and are strongly affected by finite momentum
             resolution effects.},

   Abstract = {A new robust method to extract the specific shear viscosity
             (η/s)(QGP) of a quark-gluon plasma (QGP) at temperatures
             T(c) < T ≲ 2T(c) from the centrality dependence of the
             eccentricity-scaled elliptic flow v2/ε measured in
             ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions is presented.
             Coupling viscous fluid dynamics for the QGP with a
             microscopic transport model for hadronic freeze-out we find
             for 200 A GeV Au + Au collisions that v2/ε is a universal
             function of multiplicity density (1/S)(dN(ch)/dy) that
             depends only on the viscosity but not on the model used for
             computing the initial fireball eccentricity ε. Comparing
             with measurements we find 1<4π(η/s)(QGP) < 2.5 where the
             uncertainty range is dominated by model uncertainties for
             the values of ε used to normalize the measured
             v2.},

   Abstract = {With advances in scientific computing and mathematical
             modeling, complex scientific phenomena such as galaxy
             formations and rocket propulsion can now be reliably
             simulated. Such simulations can however be very
             time-intensive, requiring millions of CPU hours to perform.
             One solution is multi-fidelity emulation, which uses data of
             different fidelities to train an efficient predictive model
             which emulates the expensive simulator. For complex
             scientific problems and with careful elicitation from
             scientists, such multi-fidelity data may often be linked by
             a directed acyclic graph (DAG) representing its scientific
             model dependencies. We thus propose a new Graphical
             Multi-fidelity Gaussian Process (GMGP) model, which embeds
             this DAG structure (capturing scientific dependencies)
             within a Gaussian process framework. We show that the GMGP
             has desirable modeling traits via two Markov properties, and
             admits a scalable algorithm for recursive computation of the
             posterior mean and variance along at each depth level of the
             DAG. We also present a novel experimental design methodology
             over the DAG given an experimental budget, and propose a
             nonlinear extension of the GMGP via deep Gaussian processes.
             The advantages of the GMGP are then demonstrated via a suite
             of numerical experiments and an application to emulation of
             heavy-ion collisions, which can be used to study the
             conditions of matter in the Universe shortly after the Big
             Bang. The proposed model has broader uses in data fusion
             applications with graphical structure, which we further
             discuss.},

   Abstract = {Experimental data from the Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider
             suggest that the quark gluon plasma behaves almost like an
             ideal fluid. Due to its short lifetime, many QGP properties
             can only be inferred indirectly through a comparison of the
             final state measurements with transport model calculations.
             Among the current phenomena of interest are the
             interdependences between two collective flow phenomena,
             elliptic and triangular flow. The former is mostly related
             to the initial geometry and collective expansion of the
             system whereas the latter is sensitive to the fluctuations
             of the initial state. For our investigation we use a hybrid
             transport model based on the ultra-relativistic quantum
             molecular dynamics (UrQMD) transport approach using an ideal
             hydrodynamic expansion for the hot and dense stage. Using
             UrQMD initial conditions for an AuAu collision, particles
             resulting from a collision are mapped into an energy density
             distribution that is evolved event-by-event with a
             hydrodynamic calculation. By averaging these distributions
             over different numbers of events, we have studied how the
             granularity/smoothness of the distribution affects the
             initial eccentricity, the initial triangularity, and the
             resulting flow components. The average elliptic flow in
             non-central collisions is not sensitive to the granularity,
             while triangular flow is. The triangularity might thus
             provide a good measure of the amount of initial state
             fluctuations that is necessary to reproduce the experimental
             data. © 2012 IOP Publishing Ltd.},

   Abstract = {The Ω+/Ω-ratio originating from string decays is predicted
             to be >1 in pp interaction at SPS energies. The anti-Ω
             dominance increases with decreasing beam energy. This
             surprising behaviour is caused by the combinatorics of
             quark-antiquark production in small, finite strings. Since
             this behaviour is not found in a statistical description of
             hadron production in pp collisions, it may serve as a potent
             observable to probe the hadronization mechanism in such

             Specifically, we model the dynamics of both collision
             systems using initial conditions with parametric nucleon

   Abstract = {Ultrarelativistic collisions of heavy atomic nuclei produce
             an extremely hot and dense phase of matter, known as
             quark–gluon plasma (QGP), which behaves like a
             near-perfect fluid with the smallest specific shear
             viscosity—the ratio of the shear viscosity to the entropy
             density—of any known substance1. Due to its transience
             (lifetime ~ 10−23 s) and microscopic size (10−14 m), the
             QGP cannot be observed directly, but only through the
             particles it emits; however, its characteristics can be
             inferred by matching the output of computational collision
             models to experimental observations. Previous work, using
             viscous relativistic hydrodynamics to simulate QGP, has
             achieved semiquantitative constraints on key physical
             properties, such as its specific shear and bulk viscosity,
             but with large, poorly defined uncertainties2–8. Here, we
             present the most precise estimates so far of QGP properties,
             including their quantitative uncertainties. By applying
             established Bayesian parameter estimation methods9 to a
             dynamical collision model and a wide variety of experimental
             data, we extract estimates of the temperature-dependent
             specific shear and bulk viscosity simultaneously with
             related initial-condition properties. The method is
             extensible to other collision models and experimental data
             and may be used to characterize additional aspects of
             high-energy nuclear collisions.},

   Abstract = {The relaxation of hot nuclear matter to an equilibrated
             state in the central zone of heavy-ion collisions at
             energies from AGS to RHIC is studied within the microscopic
             UrQMD model. It is found that the system reaches the
             (quasi)equilibrium stage for the period of 10-15 fm/$c$.
             Within this time the matter in the cell expands nearly
             isentropically with the entropy to baryon ratio $S/A = 150 -
             170$. Thermodynamic characteristics of the system at AGS and
             at SPS energies at the endpoints of this stage are very
             close to the parameters of chemical and thermal freeze-out
             extracted from the thermal fit to experimental data.
             Predictions are made for the full RHIC energy $\sqrt{s} =
             200$ AGeV. The formation of a resonance-rich state at RHIC
             energies is discussed.},

   Abstract = {By definition, an ensemble is a set of surfaces or volumes
             derived from a series of simulations or experiments.
             Sometimes the series is run with different initial
             conditions for one parameter to determine parameter
             sensitivity. The understanding and identification of visual
             similarities and differences among the shapes of members of
             an ensemble is an acute and growing challenge for
             researchers across the physical sciences. More specifically,
             the task of gaining spatial understanding and identifying
             similarities and differences between multiple complex
             geometric data sets <i>simultaneously</i> has proved
             challenging. This paper proposes a comparison and
             visualization technique to support the visual study of
             parameter sensitivity. We present a novel single-image view
             and sampling technique which we call Ensemble Surface
             Slicing (ESS). ESS produces a single image that is useful
             for determining differences and similarities between
             surfaces simultaneously from several data sets. We
             demonstrate the usefulness of ESS on two real-world data

             leading to constraints on the properties of nuclear matter
             with proper accounting of experimental and theoretical
             uncertainties. Aside from statistical and systematic model
             uncertainties, interpolation uncertainties can also play a
             role in Bayesian inference, if the model’s predictions can
             only be calculated at a limited set of model parameters.
             This uncertainty originates from using an emulator to
             interpolate the model’s prediction across a continuous
             space of parameters. In this work, we study the trade-offs
             between the emulator (interpolation) and statistical

             eccentricities from the TRENTo model of initial conditions

             granularity of the initial state of hot and dense QCD matter
             produced in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions and its
             influence on bulk observables like particle yields, mT
             spectra and elliptic flow. For our investigation we use a
             hybrid transport model, based on (3+1)D hydrodynamics and a
             microscopic Boltzmann transport approach. The initial
             conditions are generated by a non-equilibrium hadronic
             transport approach and the size of their fluctuations can be
             adjusted by defining a Gaussian smoothing parameter σ. The
             dependence of the hydrodynamic evolution on the choices of
             σ and tstart is explored by means of a Gaussian emulator.
             To generate particle yields and elliptic flow that are
             compatible with experimental data the initial state
             parameters are constrained to be σ = 1 fm and tstart = 0.5
             fm. In addition, the influence of changes in the equation of
             state is studied and the results of our event-by-event
             calculations are compared to a calculation with averaged
             initial conditions. We conclude that even though the initial
             state parameters can be constrained by yields and elliptic
             flow, the granularity needs to be constrained by other
             correlation and fluctuation observables. © 2011 IOP

   Month = {April},
   Abstract = {We develop a framework of coupled transport equations for
             open heavy flavor and quarkonium states, in order to
             describe their transport inside the quark-gluon plasma. Our
             framework is capable of studying simultaneously both open
             and hidden heavy flavor observables in heavy-ion collision
             experiments and can account for both, uncorrelated and
             correlated recombination. Our recombination implementation
             depends on real-time open heavy quark and antiquark
             distributions. We carry out consistency tests to show how
             the interplay among open heavy flavor transport, quarkonium
             dissociation and recombination drives the system to
             equilibrium. We then apply our framework to study
             bottomonium production in heavy-ion collisions. We include
             $\Upsilon(1S)$, $\Upsilon(2S)$, $\Upsilon(3S)$, $\chi_b(1P)$
             and $\chi_b(2P)$ in the framework and take feed-down
             contributions during the hadronic gas stage into account.
             Cold nuclear matter effects are included by using nuclear
             parton distribution functions for the initial primordial
             heavy flavor production. A calibrated $2+1$ dimensional
             viscous hydrodynamics is used to describe the bulk QCD
             medium. We calculate both the nuclear modification factor
             $R_{\mathrm{AA}}$ of all bottomonia states and the azimuthal
             angular anisotropy coefficient $v_2$ of the $\Upsilon(1S)$
             state and find that our results agree reasonably with
             experimental measurements. Our calculations indicate that
             correlated cross-talk recombination is an important
             production mechanism of bottomonium in current heavy-ion
             experiments. The importance of correlated recombination can
             be tested experimentally by measuring the ratio of
             $R_{\mathrm{AA}}(\chi_b(1P))$ and $R_{\mathrm{AA}}(\Upsilon(2S))$.},

   Abstract = {Motivated by recent applications of the open quantum system
             formalism to understand quarkonium transport in the
             quark-gluon plasma, we develop a set of coupled Boltzmann
             equations for open heavy quark-antiquark pairs and
             quarkonia. Our approach keeps track of the correlation
             between the heavy quark-antiquark pair from quarkonium
             dissociation and thus is able to account for both
             uncorrelated and correlated recombination. By solving the
             coupled Boltzmann equations for current heavy ion collision
             experiments, we find correlated recombination is crucial to
             describe the data of bottomonia nuclear modification
             factors. To further test the importance of correlated
             recombination in experiments, we propose a new observable:
             $\frac{R_{AA}[\chi_b(1P)]}{R_{AA}[\Upsilon(2S)]}$. Future
             measurements of this ratio will help distinguish
             calculations with and without correlated
             recombination.},

   Abstract = {The nuclear equation of state (EOS) is at the center of
             numerous theoretical and experimental efforts in nuclear
             physics. With advances in microscopic theories for nuclear
             interactions, the availability of experiments probing
             nuclear matter under conditions not reached before,
             endeavors to develop sophisticated and reliable transport
             simulations to interpret these experiments, and the advent
             of multi-messenger astronomy, the next decade will bring new
             opportunities for determining the nuclear matter EOS,
             elucidating its dependence on density, temperature, and
             isospin asymmetry. Among controlled terrestrial experiments,
             collisions of heavy nuclei at intermediate beam energies
             (from a few tens of MeV/nucleon to about 25 GeV/nucleon in
             the fixed-target frame) probe the widest ranges of baryon
             density and temperature, enabling studies of nuclear matter
             from a few tenths to about 5 times the nuclear saturation
             density and for temperatures from a few to well above a
             hundred MeV, respectively. Collisions of neutron-rich
             isotopes further bring the opportunity to probe effects due
             to the isospin asymmetry. However, capitalizing on the
             enormous scientific effort aimed at uncovering the dense
             nuclear matter EOS, both at RHIC and at FRIB as well as at
             other international facilities, depends on the continued
             development of state-of-the-art hadronic transport
             simulations. This white paper highlights the essential role
             that heavy-ion collision experiments and hadronic transport
             simulations play in understanding strong interactions in
             dense nuclear matter, with an emphasis on how these efforts
             can be used together with microscopic approaches and neutron
             star studies to uncover the nuclear EOS.},

   Abstract = {We report a new determination of q, the jet transport
             coefficient of the quark-gluon plasma. We use the JETSCAPE
             framework, which incorporates a novel multistage theoretical
             approach to in-medium jet evolution and Bayesian inference
             for parameter extraction. The calculations, based on the
             Matter and Lbt jet quenching models, are compared to
             experimental measurements of inclusive hadron suppression in
             Au+Au collisions at the BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider
             (RHIC) and Pb+Pb collisions at the CERN Large Hadron
             Collider (LHC). The correlation of experimental systematic
             uncertainties is accounted for in the parameter extraction.
             The functional dependence of q on jet energy or virtuality
             and medium temperature is based on a perturbative picture of
             in-medium scattering, with components reflecting the
             different regimes of applicability of Matter and Lbt. In the
             multistage approach, the switch between Matter and Lbt is
             governed by a virtuality scale Q0. Comparison of the
             posterior model predictions to the RHIC and LHC hadron
             suppression data shows reasonable agreement, with moderate
             tension in limited regions of phase space. The distribution
             of q/T3 extracted from the posterior distributions exhibits
             weak dependence on jet momentum and medium temperature T,
             with 90% credible region (CR) depending on the specific
             choice of model configuration. The choice of Matter+Lbt,
             with switching at virtuality Q0, has 90% CR of 2<q/T3<4 for
             pT,jet>40 GeV/c. The value of Q0, determined here for the
             first time, is in the range 2.0-2.7 GeV.},

             in the experimental search for the QCD critical point by

             paper we consider the fluctuations of the net-baryon density
             which becomes the slow, critical mode near the critical
             point. Due to net-baryon number conservation the dynamics is
             described by the fluid dynamical diffusion equation, which
             we extend to contain a white noise stochastic current.
             Including nonlinear couplings from the 3d Ising model
             universality class in the free energy functional, we solve
             the fully interacting theory in a finite size system. We
             observe that purely Gaussian white noise generates
             non-Gaussian fluctuations, but finite size effects and exact
             net-baryon number conservation lead to significant
             deviations from the expected behavior in equilibrated

             deviation from infinite volume expectations. With this

             relativistic hydrodynamics within one region of the forward
             light-cone, and microscopic transport theory (i.e. UrQMD) in
             the complement. Our initial condition consists of a
             quark-gluon plasma which expands hydrodynamically and
             hadronizes. After hadronization the solution eventually
             changes from expansion in local equilibrium to free
             streaming, as determined selfconsistently by the interaction
             rates between the hadrons and the local expansion rate. We
             show that in such a scenario the inverse slopes of the
             mT-spectra of multiple strange baryons (Ξ, Ω) are
             practically unaffected by the purely hadronic stage of the
             reaction, while the flow of p's and Λ's increases.
             Moreover, we find that the rather "soft" transverse
             expansion at RHIC energies (due to a first-order phase
             transition) is not washed out by strong rescattering in the
             hadronic stage. The earlier kinetic freeze-out as compared
             to SPS-energies results in similar inverse slopes (of the
             mT-spectra of the hadrons in the final state) at RHIC and
             SPS energies. © 1999 Published by Elsevier Science B.V. All

   Abstract = {Direct photon production in central Pb+Pb collisions at

             microscopic transport model UrQMD, and within distinctly
             different versions of relativistic hydrodynamics. We find
             that in UrQMD the local momentum distributions of the
             secondaries are strongly elongated along the beam axis
             initially. Therefore, the pre-equilibrium contribution
             dominates the photon spectrum at transverse momenta above
             $\approx 1.5$ GeV. The hydrodynamics prediction of a strong
             correlation between the temperature and radial expansion
             velocities on the one hand and the slope of the transverse
             momentum distribution of direct photons on the other hand
             thus is not recovered in UrQMD. The rapidity distribution of
             direct photons in UrQMD reveals that the initial conditions
             for the longitudinal expansion of the photon source (the
             meson ``fluid'') resemble rather boostinvariance than

   Abstract = {Background: The near-equilibrium properties of a QCD plasma
             can be encoded into transport coefficients such as bulk and
             shear viscosity. In QCD, the ratio of these transport
             coefficients to entropy density, ζ/s and η/s, depends
             nontrivially on the plasma's temperature. This is unlike in
             conformal systems where they take constant values such as
             η/s=1/(4π). Purpose: In this work, we show that in a
             (0+1)D boost-invariant fluid with no transverse expansion, a
             temperature-dependent ζ/s(T) or η/s(T) can be described by
             an equivalent effective viscosity ζ/seff or η/seff. This
             effective viscosity combines the actual temperature-dependent
             ζ/s(T) or η/s(T) with the temperature profile of the
             fluid. We extend the concept of effective viscosity in
             systems with transverse expansion and discuss how effective
             viscosities can be used to identify families of ζ/s(T) and
             η/s(T) that lead to similar hydrodynamic evolution.
             Methods: The Navier-Stokes relativistic hydrodynamic
             equations are used to provide a first definition of
             effective viscosity, in (0+1)D and (1+1)D. In the (0+1)D
             case, the analysis is extended to Israel-Stewart-type
             second-order hydrodynamics to clarify the effect of
             higher-order hydrodynamics corrections on the effective
             viscosity. Results: In a boost-invariant fluid with no
             transverse expansion [(0+1)D], the effective viscosity is
             expressed as a simple integral of ζ/s(T) or η/s(T) over
             temperature, with a weight determined by the speed of sound
             of the fluid. The result is general for any equation of
             state with a moderate temperature dependence of the speed of
             sound, including the QCD equation of state. This definition
             of effective viscosity can be used to identify infinite
             families of ζ/s(T) or η/s(T) that produce essentially
             indistinguishable temperature profiles. In a boost-invariant
             cylindrical system [(1+1)D], a similar definition of
             effective viscosity is obtained in terms of characteristic
             trajectories in time and transverse direction. This leads to
             an infinite number of constraints on an infinite functional
             space for ζ/s(T) and η/s(T). Realistic examples are
             presented by using a finite number of constraints on a
             finite functional space. Conclusions: The definition of
             effective viscosity in a (0+1)D system clarifies how
             infinite families of ζ/s(T) and η/s(T) can result in
             nearly identical hydrodynamic temperature profiles. By
             extending the study to a boost-invariant cylindrical
             [(1+1)D] fluid, we identify an approximate but more general
             definition of effective viscosity that highlights the
             potential and limits of the concept of effective viscosity
             in fluids with limited symmetries.},

   Abstract = {An ensemble is a collection of related datasets, called
             members, built from a series of runs of a simulation or an
             experiment. Ensembles are large, temporal, multidimensional,
             and multivariate, making them difficult to analyze. Another
             important challenge is visualizing ensembles that vary both
             in space and time. Initial visualization techniques
             displayed ensembles with a small number of members, or
             presented an overview of an entire ensemble, but without
             potentially important details. Recently, researchers have
             suggested combining these two directions, allowing users to
             choose subsets of members to visualization. This manual
             selection process places the burden on the user to identify
             which members to explore. We first introduce a static
             ensemble visualization system that automatically helps users
             locate interesting subsets of members to visualize. We next
             extend the system to support analysis and visualization of
             temporal ensembles. We employ 3D shape comparison, cluster
             tree visualization, and glyph based visualization to
             represent different levels of detail within an ensemble.
             This strategy is used to provide two approaches for temporal
             ensemble analysis: (1) segment based ensemble analysis, to
             capture important shape transition time-steps, clusters
             groups of similar members, and identify common shape changes
             over time across multiple members; and (2) time-step based
             ensemble analysis, which assumes ensemble members are
             aligned in time by combining similar shapes at common
             time-steps. Both approaches enable users to interactively
             visualize and analyze a temporal ensemble from different
             perspectives at different levels of detail. We demonstrate
             our techniques on an ensemble studying matter transition
             from hadronic gas to quark-gluon plasma during gold-on-gold
             particle collisions.},

             Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider and the CERN Large Hadron

             the locally thermalized and fluid dynamically evolving
             quark-gluon plasma. The elliptic flow of D mesons and the
             centrality dependence measured at the LHC is well reproduced
             for purely collisional and bremsstrahlung interactions. Due
             to the event-by-event fluctuating initial conditions from
             the EPOS2 model, the D meson triangular flow is predicted to
             be nonzero at s=200 GeV and s=2.76 TeV. We study the
             centrality dependence and quantify the contributions
             stemming from flow of the light bulk event and the

             the initial eccentricities behave differently for heavy
             mesons than for light hadrons due to their inertia.
             Higher-order flow coefficients of heavy flavor become
             important in order to quantify the degree of

             medium-induced gluon radiation. The space-time profiles of

   Abstract = {Local thermal and chemical equilibration is studied for
             central A + A collisions at 10.7-160 AGeV in the
             Ultrarelativistic Quantum Molecular Dynamics model (UrQMD).
             The UrQMD mode exhibits strong deviations from local
             equilibrium at the high density hadron-string phase formed
             during the early stage of the collision. Equilibration of
             the hadron-resonance matter is established in the central
             cäl of volume V = 125 fmat later stages, t > 10 fm/c, of
             the resulting quasi-isentropic expansion. The
             thermodynamical functions in the cell and their time
             evolution are presented. Deviations of the UrQMD
             quasi-equilibrium state from the statistical mechanics
             equilibrium are found. They increase with energy per baryon
             and lead to a strong enhancement of the pion number density
             as compared to statistical mechanics estimates at SPS
             energies. ©1999 Published by Elsevier Science B.V. All

   Abstract = {The hypothesis of local equilibrium (LE) in relativistic
             heavy ion collisions at energies from AGS to RHIC is checked
             in the microscopic transport model. We find that kinetic,
             thermal, and chemical equilibration of the expanding
             hadronic matter is nearly reached in central collisions at
             AGS energy for t ≥ 10 fm/c in a central cell. At these
             times the equation of state may be approximated by a simple
             dependence P ≅ (0.12 - 0.15) ε. Increasing deviations of
             the yields and the energy spectra of hadrons from
             statistical model values are observed for increasing
             bombarding energies. The origin of these deviations is
             traced to the irreversible multiparticle decays of strings
             and many-body (N ≥ 3) decays of resonances. The violations
             of LE indicate that the matter in the cell reaches a steady
             state instead of idealized equilibrium. The entropy density
             in the cell is only about 6% smaller than that of the
             equilibrium state.},

   Abstract = {We apply a well tested hybrid transport model, which couples
             viscous hydrodynamics to a hadronic afterburner, to describe
             bulk observables in proton-lead and lead-lead collisions at
             sNN=5.02TeV. The quark-gluon plasma (QGP) initial conditions
             are modeled using the parametric TRENTo model with
             additional nucleon substructure parameters to vary the
             number and size of hot spots inside each nucleon, followed
             by a pre-equilibrium free streaming stage to match the full
             energy-momentum tensor of the initial state onto viscous
             hydrodynamics. Initial condition and QGP medium parameters,
             such as the temperature dependence of the QGP shear and bulk
             viscosities, are then calibrated using Bayesian parameter
             estimation to describe charged particle yields, mean pT and
             anisotropic flow harmonics of both collision systems in a
             single self-consistent framework. We find that the hybrid
             model provides a compelling, simultaneous description of
             both collision systems using appropriately chosen model
             parameters, and present new posterior estimates for the size
             and shape of the nucleon and temperature dependence of QGP

   Abstract = {An ensemble is a collection of related datasets. Each
             dataset, or member, of an ensemble is normally large,
             multidimensional, and spatio-temporal. Ensembles are used
             extensively by scientists and mathematicians, for example,
             by executing a simulation repeatedly with slightly different
             input parameters and saving the results in an ensemble to
             see how parameter choices affect the simulation. To draw
             inferences from an ensemble, scientists need to compare data
             both within and between ensemble members. We propose two
             techniques to support ensemble exploration and comparison: a
             pairwise sequential animation method that visualizes locally
             neighboring members simultaneously, and a screen door
             tinting method that visualizes subsets of members using
             screen space subdivision. We demonstrate the capabilities of
             both techniques, first using synthetic data, then with
             simulation data of heavy ion collisions in high-energy
             physics. Results show that both techniques are capable of
             supporting meaningful comparisons of ensemble

   Abstract = {Ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions at the Relativistic
             Heavy-Ion Collider (RHIC) are thought to have created a
             Quark-Gluon Plasma, characterized by a very small shear
             viscosity to entropy density ratio η/s, close to the lower
             bound predicted for that quantity by string theory. However,
             due to the dynamics of the collision, the produced matter
             passes through a phase characterized by an expanding and
             rapidly cooling hadron gas with strongly increasing η/s.
             Such a rise in η/s would not be compatible with the success
             of (viscous) hydrodynamics, which requires a very small
             value of η/s throughout the full evolution of the reaction
             in order to successfully describe the collective flow seen
             in the experiments. Here we show that the inclusion of a
             pion-chemical potential, which is bound to arise due to the
             separation of chemical and kinetic freeze-out during the
             collision evolution, will reduce the value of η/s, and
             argue that introduction of other chemical potentials could
             ensure the successful application of (viscous) hydrodynamics
             to collisions at RHIC. © 2009 Springer-Verlag / Società

   Abstract = {In response to the 2013 Update of the European Strategy for
             Particle Physics, the Future Circular Collider (FCC) study
             was launched, as an international collaboration hosted by
             CERN. This study covers a highest-luminosity high-energy
             lepton collider (FCC-ee) and an energy-frontier hadron
             collider (FCC-hh), which could, successively, be installed
             in the same 100 km tunnel. The scientific capabilities of
             the integrated FCC programme would serve the worldwide
             community throughout the 21st century. The FCC study also
             investigates an LHC energy upgrade, using FCC-hh technology.
             This document constitutes the second volume of the FCC
             Conceptual Design Report, devoted to the electron-positron
             collider FCC-ee. After summarizing the physics discovery
             opportunities, it presents the accelerator design,
             performance reach, a staged operation scenario, the
             underlying technologies, civil engineering, technical
             infrastructure, and an implementation plan. FCC-ee can be
             built with today’s technology. Most of the FCC-ee
             infrastructure could be reused for FCC-hh. Combining
             concepts from past and present lepton colliders and adding a
             few novel elements, the FCC-ee design promises outstandingly
             high luminosity. This will make the FCC-ee a unique
             precision instrument to study the heaviest known particles
             (Z, W and H bosons and the top quark), offering great direct
             and indirect sensitivity to new physics.},

             created in central collisions at RHIC. We provide a

   Abstract = {We argue that the emission of hadrons with transverse
             momentum up to about 5 GeV/c in central relativistic heavy
             ion collisions is dominated by recombination, rather than
             fragmentation of partons. This mechanism provides a natural
             explanation for the observed constant baryon-to-meson ratio
             of about one and the apparent lack of a nuclear suppression
             of the baryon yield in this momentum range. Fragmentation
             becomes dominant at higher transverse momentum, but the
             transition point is delayed by the energy loss of fast
             partons in dense matter.},

   Abstract = {The recombination model as a model for hadronization from a
             quark-gluon plasma has been recently revived since it has
             advantages in explaining several important features of the
             final state produced in heavy-ion collisions at the RHIC,
             such as the constituent quark number scaling of the elliptic
             coefficient versus the transverse energy of identified
             hadrons, the bending shape of the pT spectrum of hadrons
             near 5 GeV/c, and the measured large value of
             baryon-to-meson ratio (of the order of unity) in the same pT
             range. We have developed a dynamic simulation model of
             heavy-ion collisions in which a quark-gluon plasma, starting
             from a certain initial condition, evolves hydrodynamically
             until it reaches the phase boundary, and then hadronizes by
             valence quark recombination. Rescattering after
             hadronization is described by UrQMD. We discuss some details
             of the model and report first, preliminary results. © 2009

             energy-frontier hadron collider (FCC-hh), a
             highest-luminosity high-energy lepton collider (FCC-ee), the
             corresponding 100 km tunnel infrastructure, as well as the

             high-energy LHC, based on FCC-hh technology. This document
             constitutes the third volume of the FCC Conceptual Design
             Report, devoted to the hadron collider FCC-hh. It summarizes
             the FCC-hh physics discovery opportunities, presents the
             FCC-hh accelerator design, performance reach, and staged
             operation plan, discusses the underlying technologies, the
             civil engineering and technical infrastructure, and also

             the FCC-hh design aims at significantly extending the energy
             frontier to 100 TeV. Its unprecedented centre-of-mass
             collision energy will make the FCC-hh a unique instrument to

             the spacetime evolution of the produced hot and dense QCD

             collisions, using a multistage event generator within the

             in the rate of inclusive jets and high transverse momentum
             (high-pT) hadrons. Scattering-induced jet energy loss is
             calculated in two stages: a high virtuality stage based on
             the matter model, in which scattering of highly virtual
             partons modifies the vacuum radiation pattern, and a second
             stage at lower jet virtuality based on the lbt model, in
             which leading partons gain and lose virtuality by scattering
             and radiation. Coherence effects that reduce the
             medium-induced emission rate in the matter phase are also
             included. The trento model is used for initial conditions,
             and the (2+1)dimensional vishnu model is used for viscous
             hydrodynamic evolution. Jet interactions with the medium are
             modeled via 2-to-2 scattering with Debye screened
             potentials, in which the recoiling partons are tracked,
             hadronized, and included in the jet clustering. Holes left
             in the medium are also tracked and subtracted to conserve
             transverse momentum. Calculations of the nuclear
             modification factor (RAA) for inclusive jets and high-pT
             hadrons are compared to experimental measurements at the BNL
             Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and the CERN Large

             stop criteria, etc. - we can describe these data at all
             energies for central and semicentral collisions without a

             The anticorrelation of pions and nucleons can be explained
             by multiple πN scattering. It turns out that the nonzero
             transverse momentum for pions at target rapidities is no
             proof for pion absorption in contrast to claims in previous
             works. Pion absorption does not influence the angular
             distribution of pions but plays an important role for the
             absolute numbers of produced pions. © 1993.},

   Abstract = {We have implemented the LPM effect into a microscopic
             transport model with partonic degrees of freedom by
             following the algorithm of Zapp & Wiedemann. The
             Landau-Pomeranchuk-Migdal (LPM) effect is a quantum
             interference process that modifies the emission of radiation
             in the presence of a dense medium. In QCD this results in a
             quadratic length dependence for radiative energy loss. This
             is an important effect for the modification of jets by their

   Abstract = {In relativistic heavy-ion collisions, the production of
             heavy quarks at large transverse momenta is strongly
             suppressed compared to proton-proton collisions. In
             addition, an unexpectedly large azimuthal anisotropy was
             observed for the emission of charmed hadrons in noncentral
             collisions. Both observations pose challenges to the
             theoretical understanding of the coupling between heavy
             quarks and the quark-gluon plasma produced in these
             collisions. Transport models for the evolution of heavy
             quarks in a QCD medium offer the opportunity to study these
             effects; two of the most successful approaches are based on
             the linearized Boltzmann transport equation and the Langevin
             equation. In this work, we develop a hybrid transport model
             that combines the strengths of both of these approaches:
             Heavy quarks scatter with medium partons using
             matrix-elements calculated in perturbative QCD, while
             between these discrete hard scatterings they evolve using a
             Langevin equation with empirical transport coefficients to
             capture the nonperturbative soft part of the interaction.
             With the hybrid transport model coupled to a
             state-of-the-art event-by-event bulk evolution model based
             on 2+1D relativistic viscous fluid dynamics, we study the
             azimuthal anisotropy and nuclear modification factor of
             heavy quarks in Pb+Pb collisions at s=5.02 TeV. The
             parameters related to heavy-flavor transport are calibrated
             using a Bayesian analysis comparing them to available
             D-meson and B-meson data at the Large Hadron Collider. Using
             the calibrated model, we study the implications on
             heavy-flavor transport properties and predict
             observables.},

             microscopic transport model. Dynamical calculations
             performed for a central cell in the reaction are compared to
             the predictions of the thermal statistical model. We find
             that kinetic, thermal, and chemical equilibration of the

             central collisions at AGS energy for [Formula Presented] in
             a central cell. At these times the equation of state may be
             approximated by a simple dependence [Formula Presented].
             Increasing deviations of the yields and the energy spectra
             of hadrons from statistical model values are observed for
             increasing energy, [Formula Presented] GeV and [Formula
             Presented] GeV. These violations of local equilibrium

             even in the central cell of heavy ion collisions at energies
             above [Formula Presented] GeV. The origin of these findings
             is traced to the multiparticle decays of strings and

             transport model is described in great detail. Based on the
             same principles as QMD and RQMD, it incorporates a vastly

             symmetry, 55 baryon and 32 meson species. Isospin is
             explicitly treated for all hadrons. The range of

             implementation of gluon emission in an event-by-event

             because the Landau-Pomeranchuk-Migdal (LPM) effect of the

             distances that may be comparable to the typical expansion

   Abstract = {In summary, we have introduced a hybrid macroscopic/microscopic
             transport approach, combining a newly developed relativistic
             3+1 dimensional hydrodynamic model for the early deconfined
             stage of the reaction and the hadronization process with a
             microscopic non-equilibrium model for the later hadronic
             stage at which the hydrodynamic equilibrium assumptions are
             not valid anymore. Within this approach we have
             self-consistently calculated the freeze-out of the hadronic
             system, accounting for the collective flow on the
             hadronization hypersurface generated by the QGP expansion.
             We have compared the results of our hybrid model and of a
             calculation utilizing our hydrodynamic model for the full
             evolution of the reaction to experimental data. This
             comparison has allowed us to quantify the strength of
             dissipative effects prevalent in the later hadronic phase of
             the reaction, which cannot be properly treated in the
             framework of ideal hydrodynamics. Overall, the improved
             treatment of the hadronic phase provides a far better
             agreement between transport calculation and data, in
             particular concerning the flavor dependence of radial flow
             observables and the collective behavior of matter at
             forward/backward rapidities. We find that the hadronic phase
             of the heavy-ion reaction at top RHIC energy is of
             significant duration (at least 10 fm/c) and that hadronic
             freeze-out is a continuous process, strongly depending on
             hadron flavor and momenta. With this work we have
             established a base-line - both for the regular 3+1
             dimensional hydrodynamic model as well as for the hybrid
             hydro+micro approach. In forthcoming publications we shall
             expand on this baseline by investigating the effects of a
             realistic lattice-QCD motivated equation of state containing
             a tri-cricital point and by performing an analysis of two
             particle correlations (HBT interferometry). We also plan to
             use our model as the medium for the propagation of jets and
             heavy quarks and to study the modification of our medium due
             to the passage of these hard probes. © World Scientific

             in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Transport theory,
             allowing for coupling to an evolving medium with fluctuating

   Abstract = {We study the properties of the strongly-coupled quark-gluon
             plasma with a multistage model of heavy ion collisions that
             combines the T$_\mathrm{R}$ENTo initial condition ansatz,
             free-streaming, viscous relativistic hydrodynamics, and a
             relativistic hadronic transport. A model-to-data comparison
             with Bayesian inference is performed, revisiting assumptions
             made in previous studies. The role of parameter priors is
             studied in light of their importance towards the
             interpretation of results. We emphasize the use of closure
             tests to perform extensive validation of the analysis
             workflow before comparison with observations. Our study
             combines measurements from the Large Hadron Collider and the
             Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider, achieving a good
             simultaneous description of a wide range of hadronic
             observables from both colliders. The selected experimental
             data provide reasonable constraints on the shear and the
             bulk viscosities of the quark-gluon plasma at $T\sim$
             150-250 MeV, but their constraining power degrades at higher
             temperatures $T \gtrsim 250$ MeV. Furthermore, these
             viscosity constraints are found to depend significantly on
             how viscous corrections are handled in the transition from
             hydrodynamics to the hadronic transport. Several other model
             parameters, including the free-streaming time, show similar

             individual observables to the various model parameters.
             Finally, Bayesian model selection is used to quantitatively
             compare the agreement with measurements for different sets
             of model assumptions, including different particlization
             models and different choices for which parameters are

   Abstract = {The modification of hard jets in an extended static medium
             held at a fixed temperature is studied using three different
             Monte Carlo event generators: linear Boltzmann transport
             (LBT), modular all twist transverse-scattering elastic-drag
             and radiation (MATTER), and modular algorithm for
             relativistic treatment of heavy-ion interactions (MARTINI).
             Each event generator contains a different set of assumptions
             regarding the energy and virtuality of the partons within a
             jet versus the energy scale of the medium and, hence,
             applies to a different epoch in the space-time history of
             the jet evolution. Here modeling is developed where a jet
             may sequentially transition from one generator to the next,
             on a parton-by-parton level, providing a detailed simulation
             of the space-time evolution of medium modified jets over a
             much broader dynamic range than has been attempted
             previously in a single calculation. Comparisons are carried
             out for different observables sensitive to jet quenching,
             including the parton fragmentation function and the
             azimuthal distribution of jet energy around the jet axis.
             The effect of varying the boundary between different
             generators is studied and a theoretically motivated
             criterion for the location of this boundary is proposed. The
             importance of such an approach with coupled generators to
             the modeling of jet quenching is discussed.},

             transport approach, Parton-Hadron-String Dynamics (PHSD),
             with a (2+1)-dimensional viscous hydrodynamic model,
             VISHNew. Focusing on p+Pb collisions at energies available
             at the Large Hadron Collider, we extract the initial
             conditions for the hydrodynamic model from PHSD, in order to
             reduce the impact of the early out-of-equilibrium dynamics
             and focus on the traces of nonequilibrium in the ensuing
             medium evolution. We find that in the transport approach
             quantities like energy density and bulk viscous pressure are
             highly inhomogeneous on the transverse plane during the
             whole evolution, whereas the hydrodynamic simulations
             dissolve more efficiently the initial spatial
             irregularities, still keeping a high degree of inhomogeneity
             due to the smaller size and lifetime of the medium produced
             in p+Pb collisions with respect to heavy-ion reactions. As a
             first step that will help to identify the impact of these
             nonequilibrium effects on final observables in
             proton-nucleus collisions, we perform an analysis of the
             transverse spherocity, an event-shape observable able to
             distinguish between jetty and isotropic configurations of
             transverse momenta. We found that the spherocity
             distribution in PHSD is slightly shifted towards the
             isotropic limit with respect to the hydrodynamic result.
             Even though this dissimilarity is partially due to the
             difference in the final charged particle production, it
             mainly comes from the different description within the two
             frameworks of the medium produced in small colliding
             systems. This finding supports the idea that
             multidifferential measurements, such as those based on event
             categorization according to multiplicity and spherocity, are
             useful to study final-state observables in ultrarelativistic
             proton-nucleus collisions.},

   Abstract = {Strange quark production in Au-Au collisions at RHIC is

             The yields of (anti-) strange quarks for three production
             scenarios - primary-primary scattering full scattering and
             full production - are compared to a proton-proton baseline.
             Enhancement of strange quark yields in central Au-Au
             collisions compared to scaled p-p collisions increases with
             the number of secondary interactions. The centrality

             The perturbative QCD regime described by the PCM is able to
             account for up to 50% of the observed strangeness at RHIC.

   Abstract = {We investigate the sensitivity of pionic bounce-off and
             squeeze-out on the density and momentum dependence of the
             real part of the nucleon optical potential. For the in-plane
             pion bounce-off we find a strong sensitivity on both the

             pion squeeze-out shows a strong sensitivity only towards the
             momentum dependence but little sensitivity towards the
             density dependence. We observe strong differences between

             assuming a first-order phase transition from a thermalized

             weakly on the thermalization time tau(i), the critical

             entropy of the QGP. The model calculations suggest a rapid

   Abstract = {A novel state of matter has been hypothesized to exist
             during the early stage of relativistic heavy-ion collisions,
             with normal hadrons not appearing until several fin c-1
             after the start of the reaction. Radial flow of
             multi-strange baryons is shown to be a sensitive probe of
             the expansion of the deconfined phase prior to
             hadronization. Using a hybrid macroscopic/microscopic
             transport model we show that if at hadronization the system
             has been significantly out of chemical equilibrium, hadronic
             rescattering cannot drive the system towards full chemical
             equilibration. Furthermore, we suggest a novel
             model-independent observable, balance functions, to evaluate
             correlations between charges and their associated
             anticharges It is shown that balance functions are extremely
             sensitive to the time-scale of hadronization: late-stage
             hadronization is characterized by tightly correlated
             charge/anticharge pairs when measured as a function of

   Abstract = {The heavy-flavor transport coefficients contain important
             information on the strong interaction at finite
             temperatures. The extraction of these numbers from
             experimental data requires dynamical modeling of
             heavy-flavor transport that is coupled to realistic medium
             evolution. Furthermore, meaningful extractions necessitate
             both a faithful implementation of the physical inputs to be
             tested and the quantification of model uncertainty. For
             these purposes, we have developed a partonic transport model
             LIDO [1, 2]. It has an improved treatment of in-medium
             parton bremsstrahlung, which has been calibrated to
             theoretical calculations in a simple medium to reduce
             modeling uncertainty. Regarding the interaction between
             heavy quark and the medium, few-body perturbative
             scatterings are applied to large-momentum transfer (q)
             processes, while a diffusion equation models the dynamics of
             small-q processes. Such a separation restricts the explicit
             use of medium quasi-particles to large-q processes only.
             Another advantage is that deviations from the leading-order
             probe-medium coupling can be parametrized as an additional
             contribution to the diffusion constant. The heavy quark
             transport coefficients are then extracted with uncertainty
             estimation from a Bayesian analysis including both the RHIC
             and the LHC data. The results are found to be consistent
             with earlier extraction of the light-quark transport
             coefficients at high momentum and be comparable with lattice
             calculations of the heavy-flavor diffusion constant in the
             static limit at low momentum.},

   Abstract = {Interactions between hard partons and the quark-gluon plasma
             range from frequent soft interactions to rare hard
             interactions. While it is reasonable that hard interactions
             can be described perturbatively, soft interactions likely
             have significant non-perturbative effects. The cumulative
             effect of the soft interactions can be encoded into parton
             transport coefficients, which can be constrained from heavy
             ion measurements. In this work, we perform a simplified
             proof of principle calculations showing that the magnitude
             of the drag and diffusion of light partons can be
             constrained from the hadronic and jet RAA, assuming a known
             temperature dependence of the soft transport coefficients.
             We show how this study can be implemented naturally in a
             parton energy loss model that factorizes systematically soft
             and hard partonic interactions. We use this proof of
             principle calculation to understand how reducing
             uncertainties on RAA can improve constraints on the parton's
             transport coefficients. We also observe the complementarity
             of jet and hadronic observables to constrain the light

             dynamical evolution inside the quark-gluon plasma and study
             quarkonium production in heavy ion collisions. The Boltzmann
             transport equation of quarkonium is derived from the open
             quantum system formalism and effective field theory of QCD
             by assuming quarkonium interacts weakly with the plasma. The
             dissociation and recombination terms in the Boltzmann

   Abstract = {We develop a set of coupled Boltzmann equations to describe
             the dynamical evolution of heavy quarks and quarkonia inside
             the quark-gluon plasma. The quarkonium dissociation and
             recombination terms are calculated from pNRQCD. Their
             interplay drives the system to a detailed balance. The heavy
             quark energy loss term is necessary for the system to reach
             kinematic thermalization. By coupling the transport
             equations with initial particles' momenta generated by
             Pythia and hydrodynamic medium evolutions, we can describe
             the RAA of ϒ family at both RHIC and LHC energies. The
             transverse momentum azimuthal anisotropy of ϒ(1S) in 2.76

   Abstract = {We analyze the reaction dynamics of central Pb+Pb collisions

             function: ∈ is decomposed into hadronic and partonic
             contributions. A detailed analysis of the collision dynamics
             in the framework of a microscopic transport model shows the
             importance of partonic degrees of freedom and rescattering
             of leading (di)quarks in the early phase of the reaction for
             Elab ≥ 30 GeV/nucleon. The energy density reaches up to 4
             GeV/fm3, 95% of which are contained in partonic degrees of
             freedom. It is shown that cells of hadronic matter, after t
             ≈ 2R/γυcm, can be viewed as nearly chemically
             equilibrated. This matter never exceeds energy densities of
             ∼ 0.4 GeV/fm3, i.e. a density above which the notion of
             separated hadrons loses its meaning. The final reaction

             Various microscopic models have successfully described many
             of the observables associated with its formation. Their
             transport coefficients differ, however, due to different

   Abstract = {Multistage models based on relativistic viscous
             hydrodynamics have proven successful in describing hadron

             in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions at RHIC is its
             very low shear viscosity, indicative of the properties of a
             near-ideal fluid, and a large opacity demonstrated by jet
             energy loss measurements. In this work, we utilize a
             microscopic transport model based on the Boltzmann equation
             with quark and gluon degrees of freedom and cross sections
             calculated from perturbative quantum chromodynamics to

             calculate the shear viscosity to entropy-density ratio of
             the medium as a function of temperature and system
             composition. One of our key results is that the shear

             are thought to have produced a state of matter called the
             quark-gluon plasma, characterized by a very small
             shear-viscosity to entropy-density ratio eta/s, near the

             nucleus-nucleus collisions from 2A GeV to 21.3A TeV within
             two independent transport approaches, i.e., hadron-string
             dynamics (HSD) and ultrarelativistic quantum molecular
             dynamics (UrQMD) that are based on quark, diquark, string,
             and hadronic degrees of freedom. The comparison to
             experimental data on transverse mass spectra from pp, pA,
             and C+C (or Si+Si) reactions shows the reliability of the
             transport models for light systems. For central Au+Au
             (Pb+Pb) collisions at bombarding energies above ∼5A GeV,
             furthermore, the measured K± transverse mass spectra have a
             larger inverse slope parameter than expected from the

             a substantial role at top Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) and

             the maximum in the K+/π+ ratio at 20-30 A GeV is missed by
             40% and the approximately constant slope of the K± spectra
             at SPS energies is not reproduced either. Our systematic

   Abstract = {The centrality dependence of (multi-)strange hadron
             abundances is studied for Pb(158 A GeV)Pb reactions and
             compared to p(158 GeV)Pb collisions. The microscopic
             transport model UrQMD is used for this analysis. The
             predicted Λ/π-, Ξ-/π- and Ω-/π- ratios are enhanced
             due to rescattering in central Pb-Pb collisions as compared
             to peripheral Pb-Pb or p-Pb collisions. However, the
             enhancement is substantially smaller than observed
             experimentally. The enhancement depends strongly on the
             kinematical cuts. The maximum enhancement is predicted
             around midrapidity. For A's, strangeness suppression is
             predicted at projectile/target rapidity. For Λ's, the
             predicted enhancement can be as large as one order of
             magnitude. Comparisons of Pb-Pb data to proton induced
             asymmetric (p-A) collisions are hampered due to the
             predicted strong asymmetry in the various rapidity
             distributions of the different (strange) particle species.
             In p-Pb collisions, strangeness is locally (in rapidity) not
             conserved. The present comparison to the data of the WA97
             and NA49 Collaborations clearly supports the suggestion that
             conventional (free) hadronic scenarios are unable to
             describe the observed high (anti-)hyperon yields in central
             collisions. A reduction of the constituent quark masses to
             the current quark masses m(s) ~ 230 Me V, m(q) ~ 10 MeV, as
             motivated by chiral symmetry restoration, yields hyperon
             production close to the experimentally observed high values.
             An ad hoc overall increase of the color electric field

   Abstract = {We investigate strange quark production in Au-Au collisions

             The yields of (anti-) strange quarks for three production
             scenarios - primary-primary scattering, full scattering, and
             full production - are compared to a proton-proton baseline.
             The enhancement of the strange quark yield in central Au-Au
             collisions compared to scaled p - p collisions increases
             with the number of secondary interactions. The centrality
             dependence of strangeness production for the three
             production scenarios is studied as well. For all production
             mechanisms, the strangeness yield increases with (Npart)4/3.
             The perturbative QCD regime described by the PCM is able to
             account for up to 50% of the observed strangeness at

   Month = {August},
   Abstract = {Measurements at the RHIC and the LHC have observed flavor
             dependence of single-hadron suppression, which reveal the
             role played by quark masses in the parton interactions with
             the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) medium. In this study, we
             explore the manifestation of quark mass effect and flavor
             dependence in jet observables. We approach this study using
             the LIDO transport model. Both elastic and medium-induced
             radiative processes are implemented for hard parton
             evolution in the medium. To guarantee energy-momentum
             conservation in the model for the study of full jet
             observables, we also include a component that mimics the
             energy-momentum transported by medium excitation. We first
             predict the heavy-jet (B-jet, D-jet) and inclusive-jet
             nuclear modification factor $R_{AA}$ in central nuclear
             collisions at both the RHIC and the LHC beam energies. We
             observe a flavor-dependent jet suppression as a function of
             jet transverse momentum, which can be tested by future
             precision measurements of heavy jets. We further investigate
             a novel observable that considers the angular correlation
             between two hard objects: a D-meson and a jet, which
             provides model constraints in addition to those imposed by
             inclusive measurements.},

             software that simulates different aspects of a heavy-ion
             collision. The default JETSCAPE package contains both the
             framework, and an entire set of indigenous and third party
             routines that can be used to directly compare with
             experimental data. In this article, we outline the
             algorithmic design of the JETSCAPE framework, define the
             interfaces and describe the default modules required to
             carry out full simulations of heavy-ion collisions within
             this package. We begin with a description of the various
             physics elements required to simulate an entire event in a
             heavy-ion collision, and distribute these within a flowchart
             representing the event generator and statistical routines
             for comparison with data. This is followed by a description
             of the abstract class structure, with associated members and
             functions required for this flowchart to work. We then
             define the interface that will be required for external
             users of JETSCAPE to incorporate their code within this
             framework and to modify existing elements within the default
             distribution. We conclude with a discussion of some of the
             physics output for both $p$-$p$ and $A$-$A$ collisions from
             the default distribution, and an outlook towards future
             releases. In the appendix, we discuss various architectures
             on which this code can be run and outline our benchmarks on
             similar hardware.},

   Abstract = {Several transport models have been employed in recent years
             to analyze heavy-flavor meson spectra in high-energy
             heavy-ion collisions. Heavy-quark transport coefficients
             extracted from these models with their default parameters
             vary, however, by up to a factor of 5 at high momenta. To
             investigate the origin of this large theoretical
             uncertainty, a systematic comparison of heavy-quark
             transport coefficients is carried out between various
             transport models. Within a common scheme devised for the
             nuclear modification factor of charm quarks in a brick
             medium of a quark-gluon plasma, the systematic uncertainty
             of the extracted drag coefficient among these models is
             shown to be reduced to a factor of 2, which can be viewed as
             the smallest intrinsic systematical error band achievable at
             present time. This indicates the importance of a realistic
             hydrodynamic evolution constrained by bulk hadron spectra
             and of heavy-quark hadronization for understanding the final
             heavy-flavor hadron spectra and extracting heavy-quark drag
             coefficient. The transverse transport coefficient is less
             constrained due to the influence of the underlying mechanism
             for heavy-quark medium interaction. Additional constraints
             on transport models such as energy loss fluctuation and
             transverse-momentum broadening can further reduce
             theoretical uncertainties in the extracted transport

             the precision era, allowing for strong quantitative
             constraints on the transport properties of heavy quarks in
             the quark-gluon plasma. Starting from the LIDO transport
             model, which combines a matrix-element based
             linearized-Boltzmann transport and diffusion based Langevin
             equation, we have made two essential improvements to
             increase both the flexibility and physical accuracy of the
             model. First, we have absorbed the pQCD scatterings with
             small momentum transfers to the medium into the diffusion
             part of the LIDO model, and we have restricted the use of
             vacuum matrix elements to large momentum transfer processes.
             This study allows us to construct a model that smoothly
             interpolates between a pure pQCD based approach and a
             radiation-improved Langevin equation by tuning a single
             scale parameter. Second, the Monte-Carlo implementation of
             the Landau-Pomeranchuk-Migdal effect of the original model
             has been improved to account for multiple scatterings of
             gluons. The simulated radiative energy loss can be tuned to
             quantitatively agree with semi-analytic theory calculations
             both for a static (finite / infinite) medium and for a
             dynamic expanding medium. With such improvements, the LIDO
             model will greatly facilitate the extraction of heavy-quark
             transport coefficient from a systematic model-to-data

   Abstract = {Heavy quarks produced in relativistic heavy-ion collisions
             are known to be sensitive probes of the hot and dense QCD
             matter they traverse. In this paper we study how their
             dynamics is affected by the nature of the bulk evolution of
             the QCD matter, the initial condition of the system, and the
             treatment of elementary interactions between heavy quarks
             and the surrounding medium. For the same initial condition
             and the same quark-gluon plasma (QGP) expansion scenario we
             discuss the consequences of the assumption of a local
             equilibrium by comparing the consequences for the nuclear
             modification factor RAA and the elliptic flows of charm
             quarks, scrutinizing the different components of the final
             distribution of charm quarks. For this purpose we employ the
             parton-hadron-string dynamics (PHSD) model, which is an
             off-shell microscopic transport approach, as well as the
             linearized-Boltzmann (LB) scheme obtained by coarse graining
             the PHSD bulk and assuming local equilibrium for the
             interactions of the charm quarks with the bulk. The RAA of
             charm quarks stemming from the later LB approach is also
             compared to a genuine fluid dynamics evolution initiated by
             the coarse grained PHSD, which allows us to further assess
             the consequences of reducing the full n-body dynamics. We
             then proceed to a systematic comparison of PHSD (in its LB
             approximation) with MC@HQ, another transport model for heavy
             flavors which also relies on the LB approach. In particular,
             we investigate the consequences for the nuclear modification
             factor of charm quarks if we vary separately the initial
             heavy quark distribution function in matter, the expansion
             dynamics of the QGP, and the elementary interactions of
             heavy quarks of these models. We find that the results for
             both models vary significantly depending on the details of
             the calculation. However, both models achieve very similar
             predictions for key heavy quark observables for certain
             combinations of initial condition, bulk evolution, and
             interactions. We conclude that this ambiguity limits our
             ability to determine the different properties of the system
             based on the current set of observables.},

             model UrQMD. The pressure here becomes isotropic at t ≈ 5

   Abstract = {We develop a systematic framework for the study of the

             heavy-ion collisions and investigate how they evolve through
             different stages of the fireball history and translate into
             final-particle momentum anisotropies. We find in our
             event-by-event analysis that only the few lowest momentum
             anisotropy parameters survive after the hydrodynamical
             evolution of the system. The geometry of the produced medium
             is found to be affected by the pre-equilibrium evolution of
             the medium and the thermal smearing of the discretized
             event-by-event initial conditions, both of which tend to
             smear out the spatial anisotropies. We find such effects to
             be more prominent for higher moments than for lower moments.
             The correlations between odd and even spatial anisotropy
             parameters during the pre-equilibrium expansion are
             quantitatively studied and found to be small. Our study

   Abstract = {A hybrid transport approach for the bulk evolution of
             viscous QCD matter produced in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion
             collisions is presented. The expansion of the dense
             deconfined phase of the reaction is modeled with viscous
             hydrodynamics, while the dilute late hadron gas stage is
             described microscopically by the Boltzmann equation. The
             advantages of such a hybrid approach lie in the improved
             capability of handling large dissipative corrections in the
             late dilute phase of the reaction, including a realistic
             treatment of the nonequilibrium hadronic chemistry and
             kinetic freeze-out. By varying the switching temperature at
             which the hydrodynamic output is converted to particles for
             further propagation with the Boltzmann cascade we test the
             ability of the macroscopic hydrodynamic approach to emulate
             the microscopic evolution during the hadronic stage and
             extract the temperature dependence of the effective shear
             viscosity of the hadron resonance gas produced in the

             prior hydrodynamic history and hence do not represent
             fundamental transport properties of the hadron resonance
             gas. We conclude that viscous fluid dynamics does not
             provide a faithful description of hadron resonance gas
             dynamics with predictive power, and that both components of
             the hybrid approach are needed for a quantitative

   Abstract = {Ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions at the Relativistic
             Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) are thought to have produced a
             state of matter called the quark-gluon plasma, characterized
             by a very small shear-viscosity to entropy-density ratio η
             / s, near the lower bound predicted for that quantity by
             AdS/CFT methods. As the produced matter expands and cools,
             it evolves through a phase described by a hadron gas with
             rapidly increasing η / s. We calculate η / s as a function
             of temperature in this phase both in and out of chemical
             equilibrium and find that its value poses a challenge for
             viscous relativistic hydrodynamics, which requires small
             values of η / s in order to successfully describe the
             collective flow observables at RHIC. We therefore conclude
             that the origin of the low viscosity matter at the RHIC must
             be in the partonic phase of the reaction. © 2009 Elsevier
