Thermalization, evolution and observables in integrated hydrokinetic model of A+A collisions
A further development of the evolutionary picture of A + A collisions, which we call the integrated hydrokinetic model (iHKM), is proposed. The model comprises a generator of the initial state, prethermal dynamics of A + A collisions leading to thermalization, subsequent relativistic viscous hydrodynamic expansion of quark-gluon and hadron medium, its particlization, and finally the hadronic UrQMD cascade. We calculate for different centralities midrapidity charged-particle multiplicities, pion, kaon, and (anti)proton spectra, charged-particle elliptic flows, pion and kaon interferometry radii, source functions for different hadron pairs and use the latter to extract the scattering lengths for baryon-(anti) baryon pairs as well as predict (anti-)proton–hyperon correlation functions for Pb + Pb collisions at the LHC. Also we analyze Phi and K* resonance production and their decays in hadronic medium.
