Publications:
A complete list of my publications is available on INSPIRE
[ INSPIRE
profile ], with links to the published versions and the (free)
arXiv
versions. Google
Scholar is also eerily good at finding my work.
For a general summary of my outlook on hydrodynamic modelling of
heavy ion collisions and electromagnetic probes, see arXiv:1704.07842
In the summer of 2018, I wrote a manual for the heavy ion hydrodynamic simulation code MUSIC as
support material for lectures I gave at a workshop at the University of São Paulo.
Since then, a new official version of MUSIC has been published.
As of winter 2021, I am half-done updating the manual for the new version: here.
The older version of MUSIC is still usable, of course; its manual remains available here.
While it is MUSIC-oriented, the manual should provide a good overview of the physics behind hydrodynamic simulations of heavy ion collisions in general.
Physics software:
Mathematica codes to compute the rate of photon production and the rate of radiative parton energy loss at leading order in AMY kinetic theory
MUSIC:
a relativistic viscous hydrodynamics code for heavy ion collisions [Sourceforge
project - Git repository - Manual ]
KøMPøST:
a kinetic theory propagator for the early stage of heavy ion collisions
