Resumen:
We study the 2+1 space-time evolution of
the fireball created in Au+Au relativistic
heavy-ion collisions as the unfolding of a
dissipative conformal fluid. Our formulation
of relativistic dissipative hydrodynamics
avoids velocity gradient expansions and
therefore goes beyond second-order
theories. We numerically solve the
equations of motion and compare the
results with those of second-order theory
based on conformal invariants and with
data.
