Topics on hydrodynamic model of nucleus-nucleus collisions

Abstract

A survey is given on the applications of hydrodynamic model of nucleus-nucleus collisons, focusing especially on i) the resolution of hydrodynamic equations for arbitrary configurations, by using the smoothed-particle hydrodynamic approach; ii) effects of the event-by-event fluctuation of the initial conditions on the observables; iii) decoupling criteria; iv) analytical solutions; and others.
