  1. Causal Baryon Diffusion and Colored Noise Joe Kapusta University of Minnesota Collaborator: Clint Young

  2. Sources of Fluctuations in High Energy Nuclear Collisions Initial state fluctuations Hydrodynamic fluctuations due to finite particle number Energy and momentum deposition by jets traversing the medium Freeze-out fluctuations

  3. Why the need for causality? The diffusion equation propagates information instantaneously. No good for hydrodynamic modeling of high energy nuclear collisions! What should the current be modified to?

  4. Why colored noise? Add noise to the current; in the local rest frame: This is white noise (Fourier transform is a constant). It is OK for hydrodynamics if noise is treated as a perturbation, but creates havoc if it is treated nonperturbatively as there will be a dependence on the coarse-grained cell size.

  15. Summary • We have studied and compared the baryon current in 1st, 2nd and 3rd order dissipative fluid dynamics. • We computed the response function, baryon autocorrelation function, and noise. • One needs at least 2nd order for finite propagation speed, and at least 3rd order for finite correlation lengths and times for noise.

  16. These results can readily be implemented in numerical hydrodynamic codes. (I-44) • Baryon transport and noise should be important even if the net baryon number is zero, and may play a crucial role near a critical point. • Microscopic calculations are needed to compute the time constants (probably functions of temperature and density). • Noise happens!
