VISHNU hybrid model for viscous QCD matter at RHIC and LHC energies

Abstract

In this proceeding, we briefly describe the viscous hydrodynamics + hadron cascade hybrid model VISHNU for relativistic heavy ion collisions and report the current status on extracting the QGP viscosity from elliptic flow data.
