English abstract:
I present the latest results from our work on simulating the early stages of heavy-ion collisions within the CGC picture in three dimensions. In our simulation we introduce an extra parameter for the longitudinal thickness of the nuclei and thereby explicitly break the boost invariance of the system. Consequently the full 3+1 dimensional classical Yang-Mills equations have to be solved numerically. The Glasma resulting from the collision of two such nuclei with longitudinal extent exhibits a Gaussian rapidity profile in its rest-frame energy density. We compare our results to experimental data from RHIC and find reasonable agreement.
