Dissipative Processes in an Expanding Massive Gluon Gas

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2010-11-01 v1

Abstract

The temperature dependence of the kinetic coefficients is obtained in the non-perturbative region with the help of Green-Kubo-type formulae in the model of massive gluon gas motivated by numerical results from simulations of lattice QCD. The entropy production rate is estimated using scaling hydrodynamics. It is shown that the increase in the viscosity coefficients leads to entropy generation in heavy ion collision processes which could be big, especially for temperatures close to the critical one.
