1301.2826 (Ulrich W Heinz et al.)

Collective flow and viscosity in relativistic heavy-ion collisions    [PDF]

Ulrich W Heinz, Raimond Snellings
Collective flow, its anisotropies and its event-to-event fluctuations in relativistic heavy-ion collisions, and the extraction of the specific shear viscosity of quark-gluon plasma (QGP) from collective flow data collected in heavy-ion collision experiments at RHIC and LHC are reviewed. Specific emphasis is placed on the similarities between the Big Bang of our universe and the Little Bangs created in heavy-ion collisions.
