Adiabatic hydrodynamization with transverse spatial gradients in boost-invariant plasmas

The quantitative success of relativistic viscous hydrodynamics in describing the short-lived quark--gluon plasma raises a fundamental question: how does far-from-equilibrium QCD matter approach hydrodynamic behavior so rapidly? Microscopic kinetic-theory studies have related this onset to attractor dynamics, but typica...
