Abstract

The transition of QGP from fluid-dynamical regime to freeze-out is accompanied by the onset of instabilities. In the present paper we investigate the impact of the magnetic field on the Rayleigh instability. We show that extremely strong field generated in peripheral heavy ion collisions has an insignificant influence on the Rayleigh bubble dynamics. Magnetic "friction" turns out to be much weaker than the viscous one.

Highlights

  • The evolution of the fireball created in heavy ion collisions is at the early stages adequately described by hydrodynamics [1,2,3,4]

  • We show that extremely strong field generated in peripheral heavy ion collisions has an insignificant influence on the Rayleigh bubble dynamics

  • The goal of this paper is to investigate the influence of the magnetic field on the bubble dynamics and collapse in quark matter

Summary

INTRODUCTION

The evolution of the fireball created in heavy ion collisions is at the early stages adequately described by hydrodynamics [1,2,3,4]. The main message is that the intense magnetic field has a strong, sometimes drastic, influence on the QCD phase diagram [33], thermodynamic properties [34], meson masses [35], and transport coefficients [36,37]. The goal of this paper is to investigate the influence of the magnetic field on the bubble dynamics and collapse in quark matter. Our aim is to get a clear-cut conclusion on the role of the magnetic field in the Rayleigh instability. In this context, we shall resort to several approximations specified in what follows. VI, we discuss the possible composition of matter inside and outside the bubble
