Dynamical initialization and hydrodynamic modeling of relativistic heavy-ion collisions

Understand

We present a fully three-dimensional model providing initial conditions for energy and conserved charge density distributions in heavy ion collisions at RHIC Beam Energy Scan (BES) collision energies.

• The model includes the dynamical deceleration of participating nucleons or valence quarks.
• It provides a realistic estimation of the initial baryon stopping during the early stage of collisions.
• We also present the implementation of the model with 3+1 dimensional hydrodynamics, which involves the addition of source terms that deposit energy and net-baryon densities produced by the initial state model at proper times greater than the initial time for the hydrodynamic simulation.
