4 Introduction (II) In hydrodynamic analyses, the Cooper-Frye formula is necessary at freezeout: (1) to convert into particles for comparison with experimental data, (2) as an interface from a hydrodynamic model to a cascade model. where, :normal vector to the freezeout hypersurface element :distribution function of the i th particle :degeneracy Viscous effects are taken into account via (1) variation of the flow (2) modification of the distribution function Nagoya Mini Workshop, Nagoya University, March 3 rd 2009 Effects of Bulk Viscosity at Freezeout This needs (3+1)-D viscous hydro. We focus on the contributions of the bulk viscosity to this phenomenon.

6 Kinetic Theory (II) Kinetic definitions for a multi-particle system: where g i is the degeneracy and b i is the baryon number. We need to see viscous corrections at freezeout. We introduce Landau matching conditions to ensure the thermodynamic stability in the 1 st order theory. Landau matching conditions:, Together with the kinetic definitions we have 14 equations.

9 Comments on Quadratic Ansatz Effects of the bulk viscosity on the distribution function was previously considered for a massless gas in QGP with the quadratic ansatz: Note (1) This does not satisfy the Landau matching conditions: (2) It is not unique; the bulk viscous term could have been, or. (3) Hydrodynamic simulations need discussion for a resonance gas. We are going to derive the form of the viscous correction without this assumption, for a multi-component gas.

12 Prefactors in Special Case We consider the Landau frame i.e. and the zero net baryon density limit i.e., which are often employed for analyses of heavy ion collisions. - Apparently, the matching condition for the baryon number current vanishes. BUT it should be kept because it yields a finite relation even in this limit: Here, ratios of two ’s remain finite as μ → 0 for and the chemical potential μ’s cancel out. The number of equations does not change in the process.

19 Summary & Outlook We determined δ f i uniquely and consistently for a multi-particle system. - For the 16-component hadron resonance gas, a non-zero trace tensor term is needed. - The matching conditions remain meaningful in zero net baryon density limit. Modification of f due to the bulk viscosity suppresses particle spectra and enhances the elliptic flow parameter v 2 (p T ) in the high p T region. The viscous effects may have been overestimated because (1) we considered the ideal hydrodynamic flow, and (2) the bulk pressure is estimated with the first order theory. A full (3+1)-dimensional viscous hydrodynamic flow is necessary to see more realistic behavior of p T -spectra and v 2 (p T ). The bulk viscosity may have a visible effect on particle spectra, and should be treated with care to constrain the transport coefficients with better accuracy from experimental data.
