Low mass dimuons within a hybrid approach

We analyse dilepton emission from hot and dense hadronic matter using a hybrid approach based on the Ultrarelativistic Quantum Molecular Dynamics (UrQMD) transport model with an intermediate hydrodynamic stage for the description of heavy-ion collisions at relativistic energies. Focusing on the enhancement with respect to the contribution from long-lived hadron decays after freeze-out observed at the SPS in the low mass region of the dilepton spectra (often referred to as "the excess"), the relative importance of the emission from the equilibrium and the non-equilibrium stages is discussed.Comment: Proceedings of Hot Quarks 2010, 21-26 June 2010 Las Londe Les Maures; v2: Corrected typos and added a commen

On a Generalized Lam\'e-Navier system in R3\mathbb{R}^3

This paper is devoted to a fundamental system of equations in Linear Elasticity Theory: the famous Lam\'e-Navier system. The Clifford algebra language allows us to rewrite this system in terms of the euclidean Dirac operator, which at the same time suggests a very natural generalization involving the so-called structural sets. We are interested in finding some structures in the solutions of these generalized Lam\'e-Navier systems. Using MATLAB we also implement algorithms to compute with such partial differential operators as well as to verify some theoretical results obtained in the paper.Comment: 19 pages 0 figure
