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…

    In making these plots, spatial grids with resolutions ∆x ≈ (0.3-1)/(πT ) were used. This necessarily limits the fidelity of these plots at distances |x| ∆x from the quark
