Once one accepts local thermalization ansatz, life becomes very easy. Energy-momentum: Conserved number: Dynamic Phenomena in HIC •Expansion, Flow •Space-time evolution of thermodynamic variables Static •EoS from Lattice QCD •Finite T, m field theory •Critical phenomena •Chiral property of hadron Why Hydrodynamics? (contd.) • We would like to understand the QCD matter under equilibrium. • Lattice QCD is not able to describe dynamics of heavy ion collisions. • Analyze heavy ion reaction based on a model with an assumption of local equilibrium, and see what happens and whether it is consistent with data. • If consistent, it would be a starting point of the physics of QCD matter. Dynamics of Heavy Ion Collisions Freezeout “Re-confinement” Expansion, cooling Thermalization First contact (two bunches of gluons) Inputs in hydrodynamic simulations: •Initial condition •Equation of state •Decoupling prescription Recent Hydro Results from Our Group QGP fluid + hadronic cascade time hadron gas QGP fluid collision axis 0 Au Au Initial condition (t=0.6fm) 1.

Discovery of “Large” v2 at RHIC • v2 data are comparable with hydro results. • Hadronic cascade cannot reproduce data. • Note that, in v2 data, there exists eccentricity fluctuation which is not considered in model calculations.
