Hydrodynamics with parametric slowing down and fluctuations near the critical point

The search for the QCD critical point in heavy-ion collision experiments requires dynamical simulations of the bulk evolution of QCD matter as well as of fluctuations. We consider two essential ingredients of such a simulation: a generic extension of hydrodynamics by a parametrically slow mode or mo...
