Bulk Observables within a Hybrid Approach for Heavy Ion Collisions with SMASH Afterburner

We present a model of the dynamical evolution of relativistic heavy ion collisions, which combines second-order viscous hydrodynamics and microscopic transport. In particular, we present a hybrid approach with MUSIC hydrodynamics, and SMASH (Simulating Many Accelerated Strongly-interacting Hadrons) afterburner. In this work, we focus on low- p T hadronic observables—identified hadron p T spectra and anisotropic flow coefficients. We also demonstrate how the hadronic chemistry is altered by the hadronic non-equilibrium dynamics, for example by baryon-antibaryon annihilation. The new MUSIC + SMASH hybrid approach is also compared to existing MUSIC + UrQMD results.
