arXiv:0810.1985 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.79.125015
Abstract
We compute the penetration depth of a light quark moving through a large , strongly coupled supersymmetric Yang-Mills plasma using gauge/gravity duality and a combination of analytic and numerical techniques. We find that the maximum distance a quark with energy can travel through a plasma is given by with .
