We have studied the collisional time and relaxation time of a QGP(Quark-Gluon Plasma) by parameterizing them by temperature. From this parameterization we have obtained the decay rate parameterized by temperature which further helps us to calculate and compare the shear viscosity to entropy density ratio of a QGP with the KSS(Kovtun-Son-Starinets) result.

This paper presents how thermal mean field effects are incorporated consistently in the hydrodynamical modelling of heavy-ion collisions. The nonequilibrium correction to the distribution function resulting from a temperature-dependent mass is obtained in a procedure which automatically satisfies the Landau matching condition and is thermodynamically consistent. The physics of the bulk viscosity is studied here for Boltzmann and Bose-Einstein gases within the Chapman-Enskog and 14-moment approaches in the relaxation time approximation. Constant and temperature-dependent masses are considered in turn. It is shown that, in the small mass limit, both methods lead to the same value of the ratio of the bulk viscosity over its relaxation time. The inclusion of a temperature-dependent mass leads to the emergence of the $beta_lambda$-function in that ratio, and it is of the expected parametric form for the Boltzmann gas, while for the Bose-Einstein case it is affected by the infrared cut-off. This suggests that the relaxation time approximation may be too crude to obtain a reliable form of $zeta/tau_R$ for gases obeying Bose-Einstein statistics.
We calculate the $delta f$ correction to the one particle distribution function in presence of magnetic field and non-zero shear viscosity within the relaxation time approximation. The $delta f$ correction is found to be electric charge dependent. Subsequently, we also calculate one longitudinal and four transverse shear viscous coefficients as a function of dimensionless Hall parameter $chi_{H}$ in presence of the magnetic field. We find that a proper linear combination of the shear viscous coefficients calculated in this work scales with the result obtained from Grads moment method in cite{Denicol:2018rbw}. Calculation of invariant yield of $pi^{-}$ in a simple Bjorken expansion with cylindrical symmetry shows no noticeable change in spectra due to the $delta f$ correction for realistic values of the magnetic field and relaxation time. However, when transverse expansion is taken into account using a blast wave type flow field we found noticeable change in spectra and elliptic flow coefficients due to the $delta f$ correction. The $delta f$ is also found to be very sensitive on the magnitude of magnetic field. Hence we think it is important to take into account the $delta f$ correction in more realistic numerical magnetohydrodynamics simulations.
Here we derive the relativistic resistive dissipative second-order magnetohydrodynamic evolution equations using the Boltzmann equation, thus extending our work from the previous paper href{https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/JHEP03(2021)216}{JHEP 03 (2021) 216} where we considered the non-resistive limit. We solve the Boltzmann equation for a system of particles and antiparticles using the relaxation time approximation and the Chapman-Enskog like gradient expansion for the off-equilibrium distribution function, truncating beyond second-order. In the first order, the bulk and shear stress are independent of the electromagnetic field, however, the diffusion current, shows a dependence on the electric field. In the first order, the transport coefficients~(shear and bulk stress) are shown to be independent of the electromagnetic field. The diffusion current, however, shows a dependence on the electric field. In the second-order, the new transport coefficients that couple electromagnetic field with the dissipative quantities appear, which are different from those obtained in the 14-moment approximation~cite{Denicol:2019iyh} in the presence of the electromagnetic field. Also we found out the various components of conductivity in this case.
We calculate two transport coefficients -- the shear viscosity over entropy ratio $eta/s$ and the ratio of the electric conductivity to the temperature $sigma_0/T$ -- of strongly interacting quark matter within the extended $N_f=3$ Polyakov Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (PNJL) model along the crossover transition line for moderate values of baryon chemical potential $0 leq mu_B leq 0.9$ GeV as well as in the vicinity of the critical endpoint (CEP) and at large baryon chemical potential $mu_B=1.2$ GeV, where the first-order phase transition takes place. The evaluation of the transport coefficients is performed on the basis of the effective Boltzmann equation in the relaxation time approximation. We employ two different methods for the calculation of the quark relaxation times: i) using the averaged transition rate defined via thermal averaged quark-quark and quark-antiquark PNJL cross sections and ii) using the weighted thermal averaged quark-quark and quark-antiquark PNJL cross sections. The $eta/s$ and $sigma_0/T$ transport coefficients have a similar temperature and chemical potential behavior when approaching the chiral phase transition for the both methods for the quark relaxation time, however, the differences grow with increasing temperature. We demonstrate the effect of the first-order phase transition and of the CEP on the transport coefficients in the deconfined QCD medium.
We derive the relativistic non-resistive, viscous second-order magnetohydrodynamic equations for the dissipative quantities using the relaxation time approximation. The Boltzmann equation is solved for a system of particles and antiparticles using Chapman-Enskog like gradient expansion of the single-particle distribution function truncated at second order. In the first order, the transport coefficients are independent of the magnetic field. In the second-order, new transport coefficients that couple magnetic field and the dissipative quantities appear which are different from those obtained in the 14-moment approximation cite{Denicol:2018rbw} in the presence of a magnetic field. However, in the limit of the weak magnetic field, the form of these equations are identical to the 14-moment approximation albeit with a different values of these coefficients. We also derive the anisotropic transport coefficients in the Navier-Stokes limit.
