New family of exact and rotating solutions of fireball hydrodynamics
A new class of analytic, exact, rotating, self-similar and surprisingly simple solutions of non-relativistic hydrodynamics are presented for a three-dimensionally expanding, spheroidally symmetric fireball. These results generalize earlier, non-rotating solutions for ellipsoidally symmetric fireballs with directional, three-dimensional Hubble flows. The solutions are presented for a general class of equations of state that includes the lattice QCD equations of state and may feature inhomogeneous temperature and corresponding density profiles.

New simple explicit solutions of perfect-fluid hydrodynamics and phase-space evolution
New exact solutions of relativistic perfect-fluid hydrodynamics are presented, including the first family of exact rotating solutions. The method used to search for them is a simultaneous investigation of the relativistic hydrodynamical equations and the collisionless Boltzmann equation. Possible connections to the evolution of hot and dense partonic matter in heavy-ion collisions is discussed.

New exact solutions of relativistic hydrodynamics
A new class of simple and exact solutions of relativistic hydrodynamics is presented, and the consequences are explored in data analysis. The effects of longitudinal work and acceleration are taken into account in an advanced estimate of the initial energy density and the life-time of the reaction.

Detailed description of accelerating, simple solutions of relativistic perfect fluid hydrodynamics
In this paper we describe in full details a new family of recently found exact solutions of relativistic, perfect fluid dynamics. With an ansatz that generalizes the well-known Hwa-Bjorken solution we obtain a wide class of new exact, explicit, and simple solutions, which have a remarkable advantage as compared to presently known exact and explicit solutions: they do not lack acceleration. They can be utilized for the description of the evolution of the matter created in high energy heavy ion collisions. Because these solutions are accelerating, they provide a more realistic picture than the well-known Hwa-Bjorken solution, and give more insight into the dynamics of the matter. We exploit this by giving an advanced simple estimation of the initial energy density of the produced matter in high energy collisions, which takes acceleration effects, i.e., the work done by the pressure, and the modified change of the volume elements, into account. We also give an advanced estimation of the life-time of the reaction. Our new solutions can also be used to test numerical hydrodynamical codes reliably. In the end, we also give an exact, 1+1 dimensional, relativistic hydrodynamical solution, where the initial pressure and velocity profile is arbitrary, and we showmore » that this general solution is stable for perturbations.« less

Exact solutions of relativistic perfect fluid hydrodynamics for a QCD Equation of State
We generalize a previously known class of exact analytic solutions of relativistic perfect fluid hydrodynamics for the first time to arbitrary temperature-dependent Equation of State. We investigate special cases of this class of solutions, in particular, we present hydrodynamical solutions with an Equation of State determined from lattice QCD calculations. We discuss the phenomenological relevance of these solutions as well.

Multi-boson correlations using wave-packets II
Abstract.
We investigate the analytically solvable pion-laser model, and generalize it to arbitrary multiplicity distributions.
We show that this kind of extension of the model is possible, but less interesting, than the already known one.

On lower scalar quark-antiquark nonets
Two-and three-channel analyses of experimental data on the coupled processes ππ → ππ, k, ηη in the channel with IGJPC = 0+0++ are carried out and discussed. In a model-independent approach, confirmation of the σ-meson below 1GeV and definite indications of the QCD nature of other f0 resonances are obtained. An assignment of the scalar mesons below 1.9 GeV to lower nonets is proposed.

From quark gluon plasma to a perfect fluid of quarks and beyond
With high energy heavy ion collisions one tries to create a new forms of matter that is similar to the one present at the birth of our Universe. Recent development on flow pattern, initial energy-density and freeze-out temperature shows that most likely this new form of matter is in a deconfined state, has colored degrees of freedom and is more fluid-like than gas-like. In present paper we calculate estimations on the physical properties of this new-old matter. “We simply do not yet know enough about the physics of elementary particles to be able to calculate the properties of such a melange with any confidence. ...Thus our ignorance of microscopic physics stands as a veil, obscuring our view of the very beginning.”

Model independent approach as a tool of studying chiral symmetry
A simultaneous analysis (in the model-independent approach) of the $\pi\pi$ scattering (from the threshold to 1.9 GeV) and of the $\pi\pi\to K\overline{K}$ process (from the threshold to $\sim$ 1.46 GeV) is carried out in channel with $I^GJ^{PC}=0^+0^{++}$. The existence of the $f_0(665)$ state with properies of the $\sigma$-meson is proved. An indication for the glueball nature of the $f_0(1500)$ is obtained. A minimum scenario of the simultaneous description of the processes $\pi\pi\to\pi\pi,K\overline{K}$ does without the ${f_0}(1370)$ resonance. A version including this state is also considered. In this case the ${f_0}(1370)$ resonance has the dominant $s{\bar s}$ component (the ratio of its coupling constant with the $\pi\pi$ channel to the one with the $K\overline{K}$ channel is 0.12). The coupling constants of the observed states with the $\pi\pi$ and $K\overline{K}$ systems and the $\pi\pi$ and $K\overline{K}$ scattering lengths are obtained. A parameterless description of the $\pi\pi$ background is given by allowance for the left-hand branch-point in the uniformizing variable. On the basis of this and of the fact that all the adjusted parameters for the $\pi\pi$ scattering are only the positions of poles describing resonances, it is concluded that our model-independent approach is a valuable tool for studying the realization schemes of chiral symmetry. The existence of the $f_0(665)$ state and the obtained $\pi\pi$-scattering length ($a_0^0\approx 0.27 m_{\pi^+}^{-1}$) seem to suggest the linear realization of chiral symmetry.

Anomalous diffusion of pions at RHIC
After pointing out the difference between normal and anomalous diffusion, we consider a hadron resonance cascade (HRC) model simulation for particle emission at RHIC and point out that rescattering in an expanding hadron resonance gas leads to a heavy tail in the source distribution. The results are compared to recent PHENIX measurements of the tail of the particle emitting source in Au+Au collisions at RHIC. In this context, we show how can one distinguish experimentally the anomalous diffusion of hadrons from a second order QCD phase transition.
