We study the early stage dynamics of a relativistic heavy-ion collision in the framework of real-time simulations of the classical Yang-Mills theory in a static box with the color glass condensate as an initial condition. Our study generalizes a previous one by Fukushima and Gelis from SU(2) to the realistic case of SU(3). We calculate the chromo-electric and chromo-magnetic energy densities as well as the ratio of longitudinal and transverse pressure as a function of time as probes for thermalization. Our preliminary results on coarse lattices show the occurrence of Weibel instabilities prior to thermalization.6 p.application/pdfengcc-by (c) Attems, Maximilian et al., 2016http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/esCol·lisions d'ions pesatsEnergia elèctricaHeavy ion collisionElectric powerinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article6667852019-12-13info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
