Cosmic Evolution of Viscous QCD Epoch in Causal Eckart Frame

It is conjectured that in cosmological applications the particle current is not modified but finite heat or energy flow. Therefore, comoving Eckart frame is a suitable choice, as it merely ceases the charge and particle diffusion and conserves charges and particles. The cosmic evolution of viscous h...

Description
Summary:It is conjectured that in cosmological applications the particle current is not modified but finite heat or energy flow. Therefore, comoving Eckart frame is a suitable choice, as it merely ceases the charge and particle diffusion and conserves charges and particles. The cosmic evolution of viscous hadron and parton epochs in casual and non-casual Eckart frame is analyzed. By proposing equations of state deduced from recent lattice QCD simulations including pressure <i>p</i>, energy density <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mi>ρ</mi></semantics></math></inline-formula>, and temperature <i>T</i>, the Friedmann equations are solved. We introduce expressions for the temporal evolution of the Hubble parameter <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mover accent="true"><mi>H</mi><mo>˙</mo></mover></semantics></math></inline-formula>, the cosmic energy density <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mover accent="true"><mi>ρ</mi><mo>˙</mo></mover></semantics></math></inline-formula>, and the share <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mover accent="true"><mi>η</mi><mo>˙</mo></mover></semantics></math></inline-formula> and the bulk viscous coefficient <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mover accent="true"><mi>ζ</mi><mo>˙</mo></mover></semantics></math></inline-formula>. We also suggest how the bulk viscous pressure <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mi mathvariant="sans-serif">Π</mi></semantics></math></inline-formula> could be related to <i>H</i>. We conclude that the relativistic theory of fluids, the Eckart frame, and the finite viscous coefficients play essential roles in the cosmic evolution, especially in the hadron and parton epochs.
