Collective non-Abelian instabilities in a melting Color Glass Condensate

We present first results for 3+1-D simulations of SU(2) Yang-Mills equations for matter expanding into the vacuum after a heavy ion collision. Violations of boost invariance cause a Weibel instability leading soft modes to grow with proper time $\tau$ as $\exp (\mathrm{\Gamma }\sqrt{g^2\mu \tau })$, where $g^2\mu$ is a scale arising from the saturation of gluons in the nuclear wavefunction. The scale for the growth rate $\mathrm{\Gamma }$ is set by a plasmon mass, defined as ${\omega }_{\mathrm{p}\mathrm{l}}={\kappa }_0\sqrt{\frac{g^2\mu }{\tau }}$, generated dynamically in the collision. We compare the numerical ratio $\mathrm{\Gamma }\mathrm{/}{\kappa }_0$ to the corresponding value predicted by the Hard Thermal Loop formalism for anisotropic plasmas.
