Hydrodynamics with spontaneous symmetry breaking: application to relativistic heavy ion collisions

Abstract

In this paper we apply hydrodynamics for systems with continuous broken symmetries to heavy ion collisions in the framework of (1+1) dimensional Bjorken model. The temperature profile with respect to proper time determined in that context exhibits no differences with the ideal fluid. On the contrary, it is shown that the profile obtained when M\"{u}ller-Israel-Stewart second order theory of dissipation is included on top of standard hydrodynamics indicates a slower cooling of the system.Comment: 5 pages, 2 figures, version accepted for publication as a Brief Report in Physical Review
