Perturbation solutions of relativistic viscous hydrodynamics for longitudinally expanding fireballs

Published 26 Jan 2020 in hep-th and nucl-th | (2001.09416v2)

Abstract: The solutions of relativistic viscous hydrodynamics for longitudinal expanding fireballs is investigated with the Navier-Stokes theory and Israel-Stewart theory. The energy and Euler conservation equations for the viscous fluid are derived in Rindler coordinates with the longitudinal expansion effect is small. Under the perturbation assumption, an analytical perturbation solution for the Navier-Stokes approximation and numerical solutions for the Israel-Stewart approximation are presented. The temperature evolution with both shear viscous effect and longitudinal acceleration effect in the longitudinal expanding framework are presented and specifically temperature profile shows symmetry Gaussian shape in the Rindler coordinates. In addition, in the presence of the longitudinal acceleration expanding effect, the results of the Israel-Stewart approximation are compared to the results from Bjorken and Navier-Stokes approximation, and it gives a good description than the Navier-Stokes theories results at the early stages of evolution.
