Transverse Energy production in Ultrarelativistic Heavy Ion Collisions

Nuclear Theory 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

Kinetic theory is used to check the applicability of parton cascade in 1 dimensional expansion. Using the information provided by 3 dimensional parton cascade, we model the transverse expansion by an effective area. With this model, kinetic theory is able to give prediction of the time development of transverse energy which is in good agreement with the parton cascade results.
