Understand

At asymptotically high energies, thermalization in heavy ion collisions can be described via weak-coupling QCD.

We present a complete treatment of how thermalization proceeds, at the parametric weak-coupling level.
We show that plasma instabilities dominate the dynamics, from immediately after the collision until well after the plasma becomes nearly in equilibrium.
Initially they drive the system close to isotropy, but Bjorken expansion and increasing diluteness makes the system again become more anisotropic.
