Popis: We conducted a study on the collective modes within the hot QCD medium generated in heavy-ion collision experiments. These modes, whether real or imaginary, stable or unstable, play a crucial role in shaping the medium's evolution. To gain a deeper understanding, we considered several factors affecting the medium, including anisotropy, interactions among medium particles, and finite baryonic chemical potential. While the first two aspects have been thoroughly examined from various angles, the inclusion of finite chemical potential was previously overlooked. To provide a comprehensive analysis, we integrated these factors. The interactions among medium particles were accounted for using the BGK collisional kernel, while anisotropy and finite chemical potential were incorporated through the distribution functions of quarks, anti-quarks, and gluons. Our findings suggest that the presence of finite chemical potential amplifies the influence of unstable modes, potentially affecting the rapid thermalization of the hot QCD medium. Furthermore, exploring the implications of finite chemical potential in conjunction with other aspects of the created medium is intriguing, particularly in the context of low-energy heavy-ion collision experiments conducted at low temperatures and finite baryon density.
