Shock-like Freeze-out in Relativistic Hydrodynamics

Published 1999-06-15Version 1

We have formulated a self-consistent model of freeze-out on an arbitrary hypersurface. It conserves energy and momentum across the discontinuity between ideal fluid and the gas of free particles. Energy and momentum of those free particles have non-equilibrium values that could be a signal for the formation of hot and dense matter in heavy ion collisions.
