Observables and initial conditions for self-similar ellipsoidal flows

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-11-07 v4

Abstract

Single-particle spectra and two-particle Bose-Einstein correlation functions are determined analytically utilizing a self-similar solution of non-relativistic hydrodynamics for ellipsoidally-symmetric, expanding fireballs, by assuming that the symmetry axes of the ellipsoids are tilted in the frame of the observation. The directed, elliptic and third flows are calculated analytically. The mass dependences of the slope parameters in the principal directions of the expansion, together with the mass and angular dependences of the HBT radius parameters, reflect directly the ellipsoidal properties of the flow.
