AdS/CFT for the early stages of heavy ion collisions
arXiv:1409.7571 · doi:10.1016/j.nuclphysa.2014.09.098
Abstract
I give a brief introduction to the AdS/CFT correspondence targeted at heavy-ion physicists. I also review some insights to our understanding of the early stages of heavy-ion collisions coming from selected studies made using methods of the AdS/CFT correspondence.
