Second order hydrodynamics of a CFT plasma from boost invariant expansion

arXiv:0808.1601 · doi:10.1016/j.nuclphysb.2008.10.012

Abstract

We compute finite coupling correction to a nonlinear second order hydrodynamic coefficient in the boost invariant expansion of the N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills plasma. The result is universal for a large class of strongly coupled four dimensional conformal gauge theories.
