TL;DR: Two-particle correlation analysis is applied to events generated with the NEXSPHERIO hydrodynamic code and shows that the nonsmoothness in the IC survives the hydroevolution and can be seen as topological features of the angular correlation function of the particles emerging from the evolving system.

TL;DR: A granular structure of the initial conditions of a hydrodynamic description of high-energy nucleus-nucleus collisions enhances production of isotropically distributed high-pT particles and reduces v2 in the forward and backward regions where the global matter density is smaller and, therefore, where such effects become more efficacious.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the hydrodynamic code NEXSPheRIO in conjunction with STAR analysis methods to study two-particle correlations as a function of Δη and Δ.

TL;DR: In this paper, an alternative stochastic model for the fundamental diagram of traffic flow with minimal number of parameters is proposed, which is based on a mesoscopic viewpoint of the traffic system in terms of the dynamics of vehicle speed transitions.

TL;DR: In this article, the quasinormal modes of Schwarzschild and Schwarzschild (Anti-) de Sitter black holes were studied by a matrix method, which involves discretizing the master field equation and expressing it in form of a homogeneous system of linear algebraic equations.
