Fluid Dynamical Description of the Chiral Transition

We investigate the dynamics of the chiral transition in an expanding quark-anti-quark plasma. The calculations are made within a linear sigma model with explicit quark and antiquark degrees of freedom. We solve numerically the classical equations of motion for chiral fields coupled to the fluid dynamical equations for the plasma. Fast initial growth and strong oscillations of the chiral field and strong amplification of long wavelength modes of the pion field are observed in the course of the chiral transition.
