A Hydrodynamic and Transport Model for Ultrarelativistic Heavy Ion Collisions at RHIC and LHC Energies

Published 31 Oct 2011 in nucl-th and hep-ph | (1110.6704v1)

Abstract: Combining the hydrodynamic model (Hydro code) and the transport model (PACIAE model), we present the Hydro-PACIAE hybrid model. We use the Hydro-PACIAE hybrid model to calculate Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$=130 GeV and Pb+Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$=2.76 TeV. The obtained pseudo-rapidity and transverse momentum distributions well reproduce the experimental data. This shows that the Hydro-PACIAE hybrid model is useful to describe the ultrarelativistic Heavy Ion Collisions at RHIC and LHC Energies. We used the hybrid model to calculate the elliptical flow for the Pb+Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$=2.76 TeV. The $v_2$ values are bigger than the experimental data at high $p_T$, and will become bigger when the Hydro evolution time is longer. The results indicate that the selection of the transition hypersurface has significant effect on the observable quantities.
