Studying ISIPP with SCOPE

Abstract:

Using the self-consistent partonic equilibration model (SCOPE), we uncover new property of deconfined matter in the form of the increasingly strongly interacting parton plasma (ISIPP) and examine its impact on the equilibration in the parton phase. Due to the advantage that SCOPE does not require the system to be in either thermal or chemical equilibrium, it allows us to identify explicitly any effects of the state of the system on particle signatures.
