Consider a System

Take an expectation value of H

As a result

We can obtain a solution of the vacuum WF and <H> approximately.

Adopt a trial Gaussian wave functional (WF)

5. Conclusion• We have derived time evolution equations with

respect to gauge invariant density matrix in pure Yang Mills theory (Gluodynamics)

• We adopt an initial condition motivated by Color Glass Condensate and simulate the dynamics of gluons after heavy ion collisions.

• As a result we have seen that the density matrix relaxes to a non-thermal state at a short time due to tunneling effects (instantons).

Remaining Problems

Classical Color Field (z direction) Reformation of KT < 0 by interaction terms Rapid expansion of the system Running Coupling Estimation in τ-η coordinate Expectation value of Other Physical Quantities Non-zero θ vacuum
