Initial conditions for hydrodynamics: implications for phenomenology

arXiv:0812.4935

Abstract

It is shown how the initial azimuthally asymmetric flow develops from the free-streaming + sudden equilibration approximation to the early dynamics in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Consequences for the hydrodynamics and physical results are discussed.
