Description

We compare predictions of 3+1D quasiparticle anisotropic hydrodynamics (aHydroQP) for a large set of bulk observables with experimental data collected in 5.02 TeV Pb-Pb collisions. We make predictions for identified hadron spectra, identified hadron average transverse momentum, charged particle multiplicity as a function of pseudorapidity, the kaon-to-pion (K/π) and proton-to-pion (p//pi)ratios,identifiedparticleandchargedparticleellipticflow,andHBTradii.WecomparetodatacollectedbytheALICEcollaborationin5.02TeVPbPbcollisions.Wefindthat,basedonavailabledata,thesebulkobservablesarewelldescribedbyaHydroQPwithanassumedinitialcentraltemperatureofT_0=630MeVat/tau_0=0.25fm/candaconstantspecificshearviscosityof/eta/s=0.159,whichcorrespondstoapeakspecificbulkviscosityof/zeta/s=0.048.Inparticular,wefindthatthemomentumdependenceofthekaontopion(K/π) and proton-to-pion (p//pi$) ratios reported recently by the ALICE collaboration are extremely well described by aHydroQP in the 0-5% centrality class.
