Long-Range Rapidity Correlations in Heavy Ion Collisions at Strong Coupling from AdS/CFT
Hovhannes R. Grigoryan, Yuri V. Kovchegov
We use AdS/CFT correspondence to study two-particle correlations in heavy ion collisions at strong coupling. Modeling the colliding heavy ions by shock waves on the gravity side, w…
Using the D1D5 CFT to Understand Black Holes
Steven Avery
In this dissertation, we review work presented in arXiv:0906.2015, arXiv:0907.1663, arXiv:1002.3132, arXiv:1003.2746, and arXiv:1007.2202 on the D1D5 system. We begin with some mot…
Shock Wave Collisions and Thermalization in AdS_5
Yuri V. Kovchegov
We study heavy ion collisions at strong 't Hooft coupling using AdS/CFT correspondence. According to the AdS/CFT dictionary heavy ion collisions correspond to gravitational shock w…
Intertwining Relations for the Deformed D1D5 CFT
Steven G. Avery, Borun D. Chowdhury
The Higgs branch of the D1D5 system flows in the infrared to a two-dimensional N=(4,4) SCFT. This system is believed to have an "orbifold point" in its moduli space where the SCFT…
Evolving Geometries in General Relativity
Anastasios Taliotis
The problem of collisions of shockwaves in gravity is well known and has been studied extensively in the literature. Recently, the interest in this area has been revived trough the…
Membrane paradigm realized?
Samir D. Mathur
Are there any degrees of freedom on the black hole horizon? Using the `membrane paradigm' we can reproduce coarse-grained physics outside the hole by assuming a fictitious membrane…
