Abstract

▪ Abstract

Application of hydrodynamics for modeling of heavy ion collisions is reviewed. We consider several physical observables that can be calculated in this approach and compare them to the experimental measurements.

Keyword(s): electromagnetic emission, elliptic flow, hydrodynamics, quark matter, quark-gluon plasma
