Description

Transport coefficients play an important role for hydrodynamical simulations of the Quark-Gluon Plasma which is used for e.g. Heavy-Ion Collisions. Especially the Vorticity is a second-order transport coefficient of interest, as it can be calculated directly for Lattice QCD via time-averaged correlation functions of the energy-momentum tensor. In this poster, we present an advanced approach in calculating these correlation functions from Lattice QCD. It involves a decomposition of the correlation functions in terms of their fundamental tensorial structures, considering the implications of energy-momentum conservation in position space and utilizing these implications for a spectral representation of the correlation functions.
