Measuring the thermalization time

ADHYDRO - hydrodynamics-like model for highly anisotropic systems

“…[12,13,14]. Such results indicate that the assumption of the fast equilibration/isotropization might be relaxed (see, however, the very recent results concerning the directed flow [15,16], which suggest that thermalization may be indeed very fast).…”

“…Other possibility is to use the method presented in Refs. [15,16,26], where an exponentially decreasing time dependence of the difference P ⊥ − P is assumed.…”
