Title: Relativistic Dynamics of Fluctuations and QCD Critical Point

Abstract

Herein, we review the recent development on a systematic deterministic formalism describing dynamics of both bulk and fluctuations in an arbitrary relativistic hydrodynamic flow carrying conserved charges. In particular, we discuss the implementation of such general formalism near the QCD critical point.

Fluctuation dynamics in a relativistic fluid with a critical point

Journal Article An, Xin ; Başar, Gökçe ; Stephanov, Mikhail ; ... - Physical Review C

To describe dynamics of bulk and fluctuations near the QCD critical point we develop general relativistic fluctuation formalism for a fluid carrying baryon charge. Feedback of fluctuations modifies hydrodynamic coefficients including bulk viscosity and conductivity and introduces nonlocal and noninstantaneous terms in constitutive equations. We perform necessary ultraviolet (short-distance) renormalization to obtain cutoff-independent deterministic equations suitable for numerical implementation. We use the equations to calculate the universal nonanalytic small-frequency dependence of transport coefficients due to fluctuations (long-time tails). Focusing on the critical mode we show how this general formalism matches existing Hydro+ description of fluctuations near the QCD critical pointmore »« less

Diffusive dynamics of critical fluctuations near the QCD critical point

Journal Article Nahrgang, Marlene ; Bluhm, Marcus ; Schäfer, Thomas ; ... - Physical Review. D.

A quantitatively reliable theoretical description of the dynamics of fluctuations in nonequilibrium is indispensable in the experimental search for the QCD critical point by means of ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions. Herein 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. Wemore »« less

Relativistic hydrodynamic fluctuations

Journal Article An, Xin ; Başar, Gökçe ; Stephanov, Mikhail ; ... - Physical Review. C

We present a general systematic formalism for describing dynamics of fluctuations in an arbitrary relativistic hydrodynamic flow, including their feedback (known as long-time hydrodynamic tails). The fluctuations are described by two-point equal-time correlation functions. We introduce a definition of equal time in a situation where the local rest frame is determined by the local flow velocity and a method of taking derivatives and Wigner transforms of such equal-time correlation functions, which we call confluent. We find that not only do the equations for confluent Wigner functions resemble kinetic equations but also the kinetic equation for phonons propagating on an arbitrarymore »« less

Fluctuation dynamics near the QCD critical point

Journal Article Du, Lipei ; Heinz, Ulrich ; Rajagopal, Krishna ; ... - Physical Review. C

The evolution of nonhydrodynamic slow processes near the QCD critical point is explored with the novel hydro+ framework, which extends the conventional hydrodynamic description by coupling it to additional explicitly evolving slow modes describing long wavelength fluctuations. Here, their slow relaxation is controlled by critical behavior of the correlation length and is independent from gradients of matter density and pressure that control the evolution of the hydrodynamic quantities. In this exploratory study, we follow the evolution of the slow modes on top of a simplified QCD matter background, allowing us to clearly distinguish and study, both separately and in combination,more »« less
