QCD plasma instabilities and bottom-up thermalization

Open access
Arnold, Peter, Lenaghan, Jonathan, Moore, Guy D·2003·Journal of High Energy Physics

Abstract

We study the role of QCD plasma instabilities in non-equilibrium quark-gluon plasmas. First, we argue that such instabilities must drastically modify the ``bottom-up'' thermalization scenario for heavy-ion collisions. Second, we discuss conditions for the existence of instabilities in a more general context than previously treated in the QCD literature. We also give a thorough qualitative review of the origin of instabilities. We discuss some mechanisms whereby the growth of plasma instabilities saturates. Finally, we solve explicitly for instabilities and their growth rates for two extreme cases of anisotropic non-equilibrium plasmas that can be treated relatively simply and analytically: f(p) = F(p?)??(pz) and f(p) = F(pz)??(2)(p?), where f(p) is the distribution of particles in momentum space.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
