Recent Progress in Applying Gauge/Gravity Duality to Quark-Gluon Plasma Physics
arXiv:1108.4014 · doi:10.1063/1.3700486
Abstract
We give a brief overview of the basic philosophy behind applying gauge/gravity duality to problems in heavy ion physics. Recent progress regarding viscosities, anomalous hydrodynamics, energy loss, as well as thermalization will be reviewed.
