| dc.description | The fireball created in an ultrarelativistic heavy ion collision is the environment in which all processes providing clues about the possible formation of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) happen. It is therefore crucial to understand the dynamics of this hot and dense system. We set up a model in which the fireball evolution is reconstructed between two stages, the freeze-out, which is accessible by hadronic observables, and the initial collision for which the overlap geometry can be calculated. Using the equation of state (EoS) provided by a quasiparticle model of the QGP, we are able to calculate thermodynamical properties in volume slices of constant proper time and determine the volume expansion self-consistently. The resulting evolution model can then be tested against other observables, such as dilepton yields. | |
