The thermalization time for a Quark-Gluon-Plasma is estimated from a quantum transport model beyond the quasi-particle approach (or kinetic gas theory). While our ansatz is crude concerning the properties of ''real'' quarks and gluons, it…
In these lectures, I will attempt a pedagogical and qualitative introduction to the theory of equilibrium and thermalization of quark-gluon plasmas. I assume only that the reader is familiar with quantum field theory at zero temperature and…
We apply the momentum integrated Boltzmann transport equation to study the time evolution of various quark flavours in the central region of ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions. The effects of thermal masses for quarks and gluons are…
The lecture provides a brief introduction of thermal field theory within imaginary time formalism, the Hard Thermal Loop perturbation theory and some of its application to the physics of the quark-gluon plasma, possibly created in…
Conventional transport theory is not really applicable to non-equilibrium systems which exhibit strong quantum effects. We present two different approaches to overcome this problem. Firstly we point out how transport equations may be…
The thermalization of quark gluon plasma created in relativistic heavy-ion collisions is a crucial theoretical question in understanding the onset of hydrodynamics, and in a broad sense, a key step to the exploration of thermalization in…
Questions concerning nuclear phase transitions are addressed within the transport theory. The issue of thermal equilibrium in the region of the liquid-gas phase transition is investigated. Signatures of the transition to the quark-gluon…
A few topics of the transport theory of quark-gluon plasma are reviewed. A derivation of the transport equations form the underlaying dynamical theory is discussed within the $\phi^4$ model. Peculiarities of the kinetic equations of quarks…
A novel higher order theory of relaxation of heat and viscosity is proposed based on corrections to the traditional treatment of the relativistic energy density. In the framework of generalized Bjorken scaling solution to accelerating…
The lecture provides an introduction to thermal field theory and its applications to the physics of the quark-gluon plasma, possibly created in relativistic heavy ion collisions. In particular the Hard Thermal Loop resummation technique,…
In this talk, I review recent progress made in two areas of thermal field theory. In particular, I discuss various approaches for the calculation of the quark gluon plasma thermodynamical properties, and the problem of its photon production…
Within the framework of Tsallis statistics with q ~ 1, we construct a perturbation theory for treating relativistic quantum field systems. We find that there appear initial correlations, which do not exist in the Boltzmann-Gibbs statistics.…
Within the next few years experiments at RHIC and the LHC will seek to create in the laboratory a quark-gluon plasma, the phase of matter through which the Universe passed very early in its life. It is believed that the plasma will survive…
Nonperturbative picture of strong interacting quark-gluon plasma is given based on the systematic Field Correlator Method. Equation of state, phase transition in density-temperature plane is derived and compared to lattice data as well as…
The thermal transport coefficients in a weakly magnetized quark-gluon plasma have been investigated within the ambit of a quasiparticle model to encode the effects of the realistic equation of state. The presence of a weak magnetic field…
This thesis is devoted to studying aspects of real-time nonequilibrium dynamics in quantum field theory by implementing an initial value formulation of quantum field theory. The main focus is on the linear relaxation of mean fields and…
We derive approximate iterative analytical solutions of the non-extensive Boltzmann transport equation in the relaxation time approximation. The approximate solutions almost overlap with the exact solution for a considerably wide range of…
Different formalisms used in the perturbative approach to Thermal Field Theory (TFT) are briefly reviewed. The rate of production of a virtual photon in a quark-gluon plasma is then discussed to illustrate some features of TFT before…
The response of electromagnetic (EM) fields that are produced in non-central heavy-ion collisions to electromagnetically charged quark gluon plasma can be understood in terms of charge transport and charge diffusion in the hot QCD medium.…
The description of thermal or non-equilibrium systems necessitates a quantum field theory which differs from the usual approach in two aspects: 1.The Hilbert space is doubled; 2.Stable quasi-particles do not exist in interacting systems. A…
