  1. 113. Subleading Harmonic Flow
    Derek Teaney (Stony Brook)
    4/9/15, 2:00 PM
    invited talk
    We perform a Principal Component Analysis (PCA) of v3(pT ) in event- by-event hydrodynamic simulations of Pb+Pb collisions at the LHC. The PCA procedure identifies two dominant contributions to the two particle correlation function, which together capture 99.9% of the squared variance. We find that the subleading flow (which is the largest source of flow factor- ization breaking in...

  2. 97. QCD at nonzero temperature: $T_c$ and the equation of state
    Dr Urs M. Heller (American Physical Society)
    4/9/15, 2:30 PM
    invited talk
    Recent improvements in methods and algorithms as well as advances in computing resources have enabled ever more precise studies of the QCD finite temeperature transition and of properties of the quark-gluon plasma using lattice gauge theory numerical simulations. In particular, simulations at (almost) physical light quark masses allow for better control of systematic errors. I review the...

  3. 74. Viscous corrections from nonlinear transport
    Denes Molnar (Purdue University)
    4/9/15, 3:00 PM
    talk
    Comparison of hydrodynamics calculations to heavy-ion experiments inevitably requires conversion of the fluid to particles ("particlization"). For fluids that are not in perfect local equilibrium, for example because they have nonzero viscosity, one needs a model that describes nonthermal "delta-f" corrections to the phase space density of particle species. In the case of shear viscous fluids,...
