Nearly frictionless states of ultra-high temperature amorphous matter

Abstract

The almost frictionless transport of very high-temperature amorphous matter that resembles colored glass condensate (possibly having much of its origin in the RHIC heavy ion collisions) in a confined annular tube with transverse corrugations is investigated using the verified transition-rate model and boundary perturbation method. We found that for certain activation volume and energy there exist possible frictionless states that might be associated with perfect fluid formation during the early expansion stage in RHIC Au+Au collisions. We also address the possible similar scenario in LHC Pb+Pb collisions considering possible perfect fluid formation in ultra-high temperature transport of amorphous matter.
