A non-boost-invariant solution of relativistic hydrodynamics in 1+3 dimensions
arXiv:1512.04221 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.93.016012
Abstract
We present a new solution of relativistic hydrodynamics in 1+3 dimensions which depends on both the transverse coordinate and rapidity. At early times the flow expands dominantly longitudinally in a non-boost-invariant manner, and at late times it expands nearly spherically. These two regimes are shown to be related by symmetry. The effect of viscosity is also discussed.
