Wake of a quark moving through a strongly coupled N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills plasma.

The energy density wake produced by a heavy quark moving through a strongly coupled N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills plasma is computed using gauge-string duality.

Gluon energy loss in the gauge-string duality

We estimate the stopping length of an energetic gluon in a thermal plasma of strongly coupled = 4 super-Yang-Mills theory by representing the gluon as a doubled string rising up out of the horizon.

Shear Viscosity in Weakly Coupled N=4 Super Yang-Mills Theory Compared to QCD

We compute the shear viscosity of weakly coupled N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. Our result for {eta}/s, the viscosity to entropy-density ratio, is many times smaller than the corresponding…

Sonic booms and diffusion wakes generated by a heavy quark in thermal gauge-string duality.

The Poynting vector generated by a heavy quark moving through a thermal state of N=4 gauge theory using the gauge-string duality is evaluated and the ratio of the energy going into sound modes to the energy coming in from the wake is discussed.

Drag force in AdS/CFT

The AdS/CFT correspondence and a classical test string approximation are used to calculate the drag force on an external quark moving in a thermal plasma of N=4 super-Yang-Mills theory. This…

Jets in strongly-coupled N = 4 super Yang-Mills theory

We study jets of massless particles in N=4 super Yang-Mills theory using the AdS/conformal field theory correspondence both at zero and finite temperature. We set up an initial state corresponding to…

Energy loss of a heavy quark moving through Script N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills plasma

We use the AdS/CFT correspondence to determine the rate of energy loss of a heavy quark moving through = 4 SU(Nc) supersymmetric Yang-Mills plasma at large 't Hooft coupling. Using the dual…

Light quark energy loss in strongly coupled N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills plasma

We compute the penetration depth of a light quark moving through a large N{sub c}, strongly coupled N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills plasma using gauge/gravity duality and a combination of analytic and…

Heavy flavor diffusion in weakly coupled N=4 Super Yang-Mills theory

We use perturbation theory to compute the diffusion coefficient of a heavy quark or scalar moving in N=4 SU(N_c) Super Yang-Mills plasma to leading order in the coupling and the ratio T/M<<1. The…

Energy disturbances due to a moving quark from gauge-string duality

Using AdS/CFT, we calculate the energy density of a quark moving through a thermal state of = 4 super-Yang-Mills theory. Relying on previous work for momentum-space representations as well as…
