Bulk Evolution
Working Group Structure
The Bulk Evolution Working Group has three components:
- Hydrodynamics
- Post-Hydrodynamics
- Initial Conditions
Pre-TECHQM Workshops
Aspects of hydrodynamic modeling related to collective flow in partonic matter, initial conditions, collective effects in hadronic matter have been disucussed during the following workshops at BNL:
Hydrodynamics in Heavy Ion Collisions and QCD Equation of State
Understanding QGP through Spectral Functions and Euclidean Correlators
Workshop on Viscous Hydrodynamics and Transport Models in Heavy Ion Collisions
Projects
A list of short-term (6-12 month) projects discussed at the BNL meeting, May 6-7, 2008) is posted here.

Pre-equilibrium dynamics
Initial profiles for testing purposes
Code verification for ideal hydrodynamic codes
Code verification for viscous hydrodynamic codes
Comparison of parton cascade models with viscous hydrodynamics
Interface between models for early dynamics and viscous hydrodynamics
Interfacing jet quenching and hydrodynamic evolution
Hydrodynamic output from various (ideal and viscous) hydro codes
Additional pages pointing to other work done on the work plan adopted at the first TECHQM Workshop will soon appear here.
