The measurement of the magnetic field created in high-energy heavy-ion collisions is challenging, due the the fact that the magnetic field decays so drastically that in a thermalized quark-gluon plasma the field strength becomes rather…
Intense electromagnetic fields are created in the quark-gluon plasma by the external ultra-relativistic valence charges. The time-evolution and the strength of this field are strongly affected by the electrical conductivity of the plasma.…
Because the initial shape of the QGP in a heavy ion collision is anisotropic, the momentum distribution becomes anisotropic after a short time. This leads to plasma instabilities, which may help explain how the plasma isotropizes. We…
