Description

We investigate the appearance of dynamical attractors in 3+1D systems by means of a Relativistic Full Boltzmann Transport approach. We look at the distribution function and its momentum moments and at the anisotropic flows $v_n$ and at how they lose memory about their initial conditions. Our analysis is performed in a wide range of system size and interaction strength, starting from typical $pp$ setup and going to $pA$ up to $AA$ collisions. We study how the emergence of universality is related to these parameters, and in particular to the interplay between the transverse system size $R$ and the mean free path $\lambda_{\text{mfp}}$, relating the ratio $R$/$\lambda_{\text{mfp}}$ to the opacity parameter $\hat \gamma$, previously introduced in literature. We also investigate how initial azimuthal correlations in momentum space affect final observables, delving in particular in the system size dependence.
