Mixture of quark and gluon fluids described in terms of anisotropic hydrodynamics

Abstract

A system of equations of anisotropic hydrodynamics that describes mixture of quark and gluon fluids is studied. The equations are based on the zeroth, first, and second moments of the RTA kinetic equations. Tests of this formulation are performed by comparing the results of anisotropic hydorodynamics with the exact solutions of the Boltzmann equations for a mixture of fluids in the Bjorken flow limit. One finds a very good agreement between the hydrodynamic and kinetic-theory results.
