Reaction-diffusion equations with suitable boundary conditions have special propagating solutions which very closely resemble the moving interfaces in a first-order transition. We show that the dynamics of the chiral order ...

Very strong magnetic fields can arise in noncentral heavy-ion collisions at ultrarelativistic energies, and may not decay quickly in a conducting plasma. We carry out relativistic magnetohydrodynamics (RMHD) simulations ...

We discuss the issue of setting appropriate initial conditions for inflation. Specifically, we consider natural inflation model and discuss the fine tuning required for setting almost homogeneous initial conditions over a ...

We investigate the thermoelectric effect for baryon rich plasma produced in heavy ion collision experiments. We estimate the associated Seebeck coefficient for the hadronic matter. Using kinetic theory within relaxation ...

A gravitational wave (GW) passing through a pulsar will lead to a variation in the moment of inertia of the pulsar affecting its rotation. This will affect the extremely accurately measured spin rate of the pulsar as well ...

We estimate here chiral susceptibility at finite temperature within the framework of the Nambu–Jona-Lasinio model (NJL) using the Wigner function approach. We also estimate it in the presence of chiral chemical potential ...

We estimate various transport coefficients of hot and dense hadronic matter in the presence of magnetic field. The estimation is done through solutions of the relativistic Boltzmann transport equation in the relaxation ...

We propose a new analogue model of gravity - the evolving quark gluon plasma (QGP) produced in relativistic heavy ion collisions. This quark gluon plasma is the “most inviscid” fluid known. Such low kinematic viscosity is ...

We show that the recently formulated causal and stable first-order hydrodynamics has the same dynamics as Israel-Stewart theory for boost-invariant, Bjorken expanding systems with an ideal gas equation of state and a ...

We derive a formula that defines quantum fluctuations of energy in subsystems of a hot relativistic gas. For small subsystem sizes we find substantial increase of fluctuations compared to those known from standard thermodynamic ...
