Relativistic blast waves can be described by a mechanical model. In this model, the "blast" -- the compressed gas between the forward and reverse shocks -- is viewed as one hot body. Equations governing its dynamics are derived from…
We formulate a generalisation of the blast-wave model which is suitable for the description of higher order azimuthal anisotropies of the hadron production. The model includes anisotropy in the density profile as well as an anisotropy in…
Expanding blast waves are ubiquitous in many astronomical sources, such as supernovae remnants (SNRs), X-ray emitting binaries (XRBs) and gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). I consider here the dynamics of such an expanding blast wave, both in the…
The blast-wave (BW) spectrum model is interpreted to reveal relativistic motion (collective flow) of the hadron emission system relative to the center-of-momentum (CM) frame in high-energy A-B collisions. In essence, any spectrum deviation…
