Description

In this article, we outline the development of a realistic dynamical model for a comprehensive description of high energy heavy ion collisions. Comparing theoretical calculations and experimental data at RHIC, we give detailed discussions on the key ingredients for the construction of a multi-module model: the initial conditions, hydrodynamical expansion, hadronization, and freezeout processes.
