We discuss directed flow introduced for description of nucleus collisions and consider its possible behavior in hadronic and nuclei reactions due to rotation of the transient matter.
Directed flow $v_1$, observable introduced for description of nucleus collisions is discussed. We consider a possible origin of the flow in hadronic reactions as a result of rotation of the transient matter and trace analogy with nucleus…

Fluctuations in the initial geometry of a nucleus-nucleus collision have been recently shown to result in a new type of directed flow (v_1) that, unlike the usual directed flow, is also present at midrapidity. We compute this new v_1 versus…

Directed flow of deuterons, tritons, $^3$He, and $^4$He is studied in Au+Au collisions at a beam momentum of about 10.8 $A$ GeV/c. Flow of all particles is analyzed as a function of transverse momentum for different centralities of the…

Neutron behavior in a nuclear reactor is described using a directed percolation model. The preferred direction is created by generations of neutrons oriented in time. Using the example of the time it takes for a dangerous neutron flux or…

Directed flow ($v_1$) is a good probe of the early-stage dynamics of collision systems, and the $v_1$ slope at midrapidity ($dv_1/dy|_{y=0}$) is sensitive to the system's equation of state. STAR has published $v_1(y)$ measurements for ten…
Using a (3+1)-D hydrodynamic model CLVisc, we study the directed flow ($v_{1}$) of light hadrons produced in Au+Au, Ru+Ru and Zr+Zr collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\textrm{NN}}}=$ 200 GeV. The evolution of tilted energy density, pressure gradient…

In turbulent flows, energy flux refers to the transfer of kinetic energy across different scales of motion, a concept that is a cornerstone of turbulence theory. The direction of net energy flux is prescribed by the dimensionality of the…
