Systematic study of elliptic flow parameter in the relativistic nuclear collisions at RHIC and LHC energies
We employed the new issue of a parton and hadron cascade model PACIAE 2.1 to
systematically investigate the charged particle elliptic flow parameter
in the relativistic nuclear collisions at RHIC and LHC energies. With randomly
sampling the transverse momentum and components of the particles
generated in string fragmentation on the circumference of an ellipse instead of
circle originally, the calculated charged particle and
fairly reproduce the corresponding experimental data in the Au+Au/Pb+Pb
collisions at =0.2/2.76 TeV. In addition, the charged particle
and in the p+p collisions at =7 TeV as well as
in the p+Au/p+Pb collisions at =0.2/5.02 TeV are predicted.Comment: 7 pages, 5 figure
PACIAE 2.0: An updated parton and hadron cascade model (program) for the relativistic nuclear collisions
We have updated the parton and hadron cascade model PACIAE for the
relativistic nuclear collisions, from based on JETSET 6.4 and PYTHIA 5.7 to
based on PYTHIA 6.4, and renamed as PACIAE 2.0. The main physics concerning the
stages of the parton initiation, parton rescattering, hadronization, and hadron
rescattering were discussed. The structures of the programs were briefly
explained. In addition, some calculated examples were compared with the
experimental data. It turns out that this model (program) works well.Comment: 23 pages, 7 figure
Universal scaling properties of extremal cohesive holographic phases
We show that strongly-coupled, translation-invariant holographic IR phases at
finite density can be classified according to the scaling behaviour of the
metric, the electric potential and the electric flux introducing four critical
exponents, independently of the details of the setup. Solutions fall into two
classes, depending on whether they break relativistic symmetry or not. The
critical exponents determine key properties of these phases, like thermodynamic
stability, the (ir)relevant deformations around them, the low-frequency scaling
of the optical conductivity and the nature of the spectrum for electric
perturbations. We also study the scaling behaviour of the electric flux through
bulk minimal surfaces using the Hartnoll-Radicevic order parameter, and
characterize the deviation from the Ryu-Takayanagi prescription in terms of the
critical exponents.Comment: v4: corrected a typo in eqn (3.29), now (3.28). Conclusions unchange
