| Research Abstract |
Our main purpose is to investigate the dynamics of the QCD phase transition and detailed property of Quark-gluon plasma (QGP) from the point of view of analyses of high-energy heavy ion collisions. At the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) which started its operation in 2000, the production of the strongly interacting QGP (sQGP) was achieved. The production of the sQGP at RHIC was established by understanding of experimental data based on relativistic hydrodynamics and the recombination model. Furthermore, at Large Hadron Collider (LHC) the operation of heavy ion collisions started in 2010. To get insight of QGP property from understanding of high-enegy heavy ion collisions at RHIC and LHC, we carried out phenomenological studies. First we include the viscosity effect of QGP into thehydro + UrQMD model which can describe not only the hydrodynamic expansion of hot and dense matter that is created after collisions but also final state interactions among hadrons. Here we developed a new algorithm that is based on the Godunov method for solving the relativistic viscous hydrodynamic equation. Our numerical method has the following important properties; (i) small numerical dissipation which is important for analyses of physical viscosity in experimental data. (ii) shock-wave capturing scheme for dealing with event-by-event initial fluctuations. We show that our numerical scheme has advantages over than other algorithms (SHASTA, KT and NT) in having smallnumerical dissipation. We evaluate the numerical dissipation that contains our algorithm. Now we extend the this algorithm to 3-dimentional calculation and start a realistic calculation for RHIC and LHC using our new hydrodynamic code.
