Re-running the QCD shear viscosity

Greg Jackson, Andre Peshier

The remarkably small shear viscosity to entropy density ratio of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) is a key insight from heavy ion experiments. Nonetheless, the basic unders…

Low-shear QCD plasma from perturbation theory

Greg Jackson, Andre Peshier

We argue that the phenomenologically inferred ratio of shear viscosity to entropy density of the quark-gluon plasma, $η/\s < 0.5$ near the deconfinement temperature , can be u…

Tracing the pressure of the gluon plasma

G. Jackson, A. Peshier

Being interested in how a strongly coupled system approaches asymptotic freedom, we re-examine existing precision lattice QCD results for thermodynamic properties of the gluon plas…

The cool potential of gluons

Andre Peshier, Dino Giovannoni

We put forward the idea that the quark-gluon plasma might exist way below the usual confinement temperature . Our argument rests on the possibility that the plasma produced in…

Collisional energy loss of heavy quarks

Alex Meistrenko, Andre Peshier, Jan Uphoff +1

We develop a transport approach for heavy quarks in a quark-gluon plasma, which is based on improved binary collision rates taking into account quantum statistics, the running of t…

Collisional energy loss of a fast heavy quark in a quark-gluon plasma

Stephane Peigne, Andre Peshier

We discuss the average collisional energy loss dE/dx of a heavy quark crossing a quark-gluon plasma, in the limit of high quark energy E >> M^2/T, where M is the quark mass and T >…
