We consider recent experimental data on azimuthal distributions of particles seen in heavy-ion collisions at 35 MeV/nucleon and at 50 MeV/nucleon. For 12C on 12C at 50 MeV/nucleon lab energy, the distribution shows features characteristic of flow; for 12C on 197Au experimental data show features characteristic of rotation. For 40Ar on 51V at 35 MeV/nucleon, effects of both flow and rotation are seen. In magnitudes the effects are small. We find that BUU calculations are able to reproduce these results.

The pseudorapidity distribution of relativistic singly charged particles produced in high-energy heavy-ion collisions is described by the thermalized cylinder picture. The calculated results are in agreement with the experimental data of lead-induced interactions at 158A GeV/c. PACS Nos.:25.75.-q and 25.75.Dw

Viscous hydrodynamical modeling of relativistic heavy ion collisions has been highly successful in explaining bulk of the experimental data in RHIC and LHC energy collisions. We briefly review viscous hydrodynamics modeling of high energy nuclear collisions. Basic ingredients of the modeling, the hydrodynamic equations, relaxation equations for dissipative forces, are discussed. Hydrodynamical modeling being a boundary value problem, we discuss the initial conditions, freeze-out process. We also show representative simulation results in comparison with experimental data. We also discuss the recent developments in event-by-event hydrodynamics.

In the previous Quarks 2016 conference I have presented a concise review of description of quark-gluon plasma (QGP) formation in heavy-ion collisions (HIC) within the holographic approach. In particular, I have discussed how to get the total multiplicity and time formation of QGP in HIC that fit the recent experimental data. For this purpose we had to use an anisotropic holographic model. There are also experimental indications that QGP formed in HIC is anisotropic. In this talk I discuss static properties of anisotropic QGP, in particular, phase transition and diffusion coefficients.

The simulation of heavy ion collisions in the Fermi energy region is a challenge for the theoretical models; in particular it is difficult to obtain a coherent description in all the impact parameter range and to reproduce all the experimental observables. In this contribution we will show the very good job done by the dynamical model AMD [1] followed by the statistical code GEMINI [2, 3] as an afterburner. The model is able to reproduce the main characteristics of peripheral and semiperipheral collisions, although some discrepancies still persist.

An attempt is made to investigate occurrence of nonstatistical fluctuations in terms of intermittency in 16 O – AgBr interactions at 4.5, 14.5, 60 and 200 A GeV/c. Additionally, mixed and AMPT generated events are also analyzed. Normalized factorial moments, Fq, are calculated and their variations with pseudorapidity resolution, δη, are investigated. Various important parameters like intermittency indices, anomalous dimensions, Renyi dimensions and Levy indices are calculated and interpreted. Comparison of the experimental results with the results obtained for the mixed and AMPT events suggests that the intermittency pattern observed in the experimental data is a manifestation of some dynamical phenomena and not due to statistical fluctuations.

The current version of a multi-phase transport (AMPT) model with string melting can reasonably describe the dN/dy yields, pT spectra and anisotropic flows of pions and kaons at low pT in heavy ion collisions at RHIC and LHC energies, although it failed to reproduce the dN/dy and pT spectra of baryons. In this work, we improve the quark coalescence mechanism in AMPT by removing the forced separate number conservations of mesons, baryons and antibaryons in each event. We find that the improved AMPT model can better describe the yields at midrapidity, the pT spectra and elliptic flow of low-pT baryons in comparison with the experimental data. Antiparticle-to-particle ratios of strange baryons are also significantly improved.

Abstract The study of deconfinement state of nuclear matter called quark-gluon plasma (QGP) and phase transition of QGP to hadronic gas is the main goal of high energy physics. Some of the important signatures of QGP formation in heavy-ion collisions include strangeness enhancement at intermediate values of the transverse momentum (ρT ) and a jet quenching effect at high ρT values. Nuclear modification factors (RAB ) for light hadrons are used to quantify these effects. The K *0 and φ mesons can serve as a good probes to investigate QGP properties, because these mesons contain (anti)strange quark and its yields can be measured in a wide ρT range. Comparison of experimental data with theoretical model calculations is important for understanding the evolution of heavy-ion collision. One of the most commonly used event generators to describe experimental results of collider experiments is Pythia8. This paper shows, that Pythia8 predicts RAB values of K *0 and φ less than RAB values in experimental data. Consequently, additional (hidden)strange particle production mechanisms are involved.

This paper presents a study of bin–bin correlation of the produced shower particles in the pseudo-rapidity space by the method of factorial correlator in [Formula: see text]O-AgBr and [Formula: see text]S-AgBr interactions at 4.5[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]GeV/[Formula: see text]. The correlated moments are found to increase with decreasing bin–bin separation D, following a power law. Strong bin–bin correlation is exhibited by the experimental data. Experimental data also supports the validity of log normal approximation. Experimental analysis has been compared with the results obtained from the analysis of events simulated by UrQMD model.
