We consider an idealized situation where the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) is described by a perfect, 3+1 dimensional fluid dynamic model starting from an initial state and expanding until a final state where freeze-out and/or hadronization takes place. We study the entropy production with attention to effects of (i) numerical viscosity, (ii) late stages of flow where the Bag Constant and the partonic pressure are becoming similar, (iii) and the consequences of final freeze-out and constituent quark matter formation.

In this work we present a general derivation of relativistic fluid dynamics from the Boltzmann equation using the method of moments. The main difference between our approach and the traditional 14-moment approximation is that we will not close the fl uid-dynamical equations of motion by truncating the expansion of the distribution function. Instead, we keep all terms in the moment expansion. The reduction of the degrees of freedom is done by identifying the microscopic time scales of the Boltzmann equation and considering only the slowest ones. In addition, the equations of motion for the dissipative quantities are truncated according to a systematic power-counting scheme in Knudsen and inverse Reynolds number. We conclude that the equations of motion can be closed in terms of only 14 dynamical variables, as long as we only keep terms of second order in Knudsen and/or inverse Reynolds number. We show that, even though the equations of motion are closed in terms of these 14 fields, the transport coefficients carry information about all the moments of the distribution function. In this way, we can show that the particle-diffusion and shear-viscosity coefficients agree with the values given by the Chapman-Enskog expansion.
We have calculated the properties of nuclear matter in a self-consistent manner with quark-meson coupling mechanism incorporating structure of nucleons in vacuum through a relativistic potential model; where the dominant confining interaction for the free independent quarks inside a nucleon, is represented by a phenomenologically average potential in equally mixed scalar-vector harmonic form. Corrections due to spurious centre of mass motion as well as those due to other residual interactions such as the one gluon exchange at short distances and quark-pion coupling arising out of chiral symmetry restoration; have been considered in a perturbation manner to obtain the nucleon mass in vacuum. The nucleon-nucleon interaction in nuclear matter is then realized by introducing additional quark couplings to sigma and omega mesons through mean field approximations. The relevant parameters of the interaction are obtained self consistently while realizing the saturation properties such as the binding energy, pressure and compressibility of the nuclear matter. We also discuss some implications of chiral symmetry in nuclear matter along with the nucleon and nuclear sigma term and the sensitivity of nuclear matter binding energy with variations in the light quark mass.
Fluid-dynamical equations of motion can be derived from the Boltzmann equation in terms of an expansion around a single-particle distribution function which is in local thermodynamical equilibrium, i.e., isotropic in momentum space in the rest frame of a fluid element. However, in situations where the single-particle distribution function is highly anisotropic in momentum space, such as the initial stage of heavy-ion collisions at relativistic energies, such an expansion is bound to break down. Nevertheless, one can still derive a fluid-dynamical theory, called anisotropic dissipative fluid dynamics, in terms of an expansion around a single-particle distribution function, $hat{f}_{0bf k}$, which incorporates (at least parts of) the momentum anisotropy via a suitable parametrization. We construct such an expansion in terms of polynomials in energy and momentum in the direction of the anisotropy and of irreducible tensors in the two-dimensional momentum subspace orthogonal to both the fluid velocity and the direction of the anisotropy. From the Boltzmann equation we then derive the set of equations of motion for the irreducible moments of the deviation of the single-particle distribution function from $hat{f}_{0bf k}$. Truncating this set via the 14-moment approximation, we obtain the equations of motion of anisotropic dissipative fluid dynamics.
We investigate the causality and the stability of the relativistic viscous magneto-hydrodynamics in the framework of the Israel-Stewart (IS) second-order theory, and also within a modified IS theory which incorporates the effect of magnetic fields in the relaxation equations of the viscous stress. We compute the dispersion relation by perturbing the fluid variables around their equilibrium values. In the ideal magnetohydrodynamics limit, the linear dispersion relation yields the well-known propagating modes: the Alfven and the magneto-sonic modes.In the presence of bulk viscous pressure, the causality bound is found to be independent of the magnitude of the magnetic field. The same bound also remains true, when we take the full non-linear form of the equation using the method of characteristics. In the presence of shear viscous pressure, the causality bound is independent of the magnitude of the magnetic field for the two magneto-sonic modes. The causality bound for the shear-Alfven modes, however, depends both on the magnitude and the direction of the propagation. For modified IS theory in the presence of shear viscosity, new non-hydrodynamic modes emerge but the asymptotic causality condition is the same as that of IS. In summary, although the magnetic field does influence the wave propagation in the fluid, the study of the stability and asymptotic causality conditions in the fluid rest frame shows that the fluid remains stable and causal given that they obey certain asymptotic causality condition.
The microscopic formulae of the bulk viscosity $zeta $ and the corresponding relaxation time $tau_{Pi}$ in causal dissipative relativistic fluid dynamics are derived by using the projection operator method. In applying these formulae to the pionic fl uid, we find that the renormalizable energy-momentum tensor should be employed to obtain consistent results. In the leading order approximation in the chiral perturbation theory, the relaxation time is enhanced near the QCD phase transition and $tau_{Pi}$ and $zeta $ are related as $tau_{Pi}=zeta /[beta {(1/3-c_{s}^{2})(epsilon +P)-2(epsilon -3P)/9}]$, where $epsilon $, $P$ and $c_{s}$ are the energy density, pressure and velocity of sound, respectively. The predicted $zeta $ and $% tau_{Pi}$ should satisfy the so-called causality condition. We compare our result with the results of the kinetic calculation by Israel and Stewart and the string theory, and confirm that all the three approaches are consistent with the causality condition.
