Fluctuations in the initial state of heavy-ion collisions are larger at RHIC energy than at LHC energy. This fact can be inferred from recent measurements of the fluctuations of the particle multiplicities and of elliptic flow performed at…

Applying a Langevin description of the linear sigma model we investigate four different scenarios for the evolution of a disoriented chiral condensate: annealing or quench with initial conditions governed by effective `light' or physical…
