Abstract
We investigate the kinetics of phase transitions for chiral symmetry breaking in heavy-ion collisions. We use a Langevin description for order-parameter kinetics in the chiral transition. The Langevin equation of motion includes {\it dissipation} and an {\it inertial term}. We study the ordering dynamics subsequent to a quench from the massless quark phase to the massive quark phase, and discuss the effect of inertia on the growth kinetics.
