Holographic Collisions across a Phase Transition
Maximilian Attems, Yago Bea, Jorge Casalderrey-Solana +3
We use holography to analyse relativistic collisions in a one-parameter family of strongly coupled gauge theories with thermal phase transitions. For a critical value of the parame…
Paths to equilibrium in non-conformal collisions
Maximilian Attems, Jorge Casalderrey-Solana, David Mateos +4
We extend our previous analysis of holographic heavy ion collisions in non-conformal theories. We provide a detailed description of our numerical code. We study collisions at diffe…
Phase Transitions, Inhomogeneous Horizons and Second-Order Hydrodynamics
Maximilian Attems, Yago Bea, Jorge Casalderrey-Solana +3
We use holography to study the spinodal instability of a four-dimensional, strongly-coupled gauge theory with a first-order thermal phase transition. We place the theory on a cylin…
Holographic heavy ion collisions with baryon charge
Jorge Casalderrey-Solana, David Mateos, Wilke van der Schee +1
We numerically simulate collisions of charged shockwaves in Einstein-Maxwell theory in anti-de Sitter space as a toy model of heavy ion collisions with non-zero baryon charge. The…
Holographic Collisions in Non-conformal Theories
Maximilian Attems, Jorge Casalderrey-Solana, David Mateos +4
We numerically simulate gravitational shock wave collisions in a holographic model dual to a non-conformal four-dimensional gauge theory. We find two novel effects associated to th…
Thermodynamics, transport and relaxation in non-conformal theories
Maximilian Attems, Jorge Casalderrey-Solana, David Mateos +5
We study the equilibrium and near-equilibrium properties of a holographic five-dimensional model consisting of Einstein gravity coupled to a scalar field with a non-trivial potenti…
Holographic isotropization linearized
Michal P. Heller, David Mateos, Wilke van der Schee +1
The holographic isotropization of a highly anisotropic, homogeneous, strongly coupled, non-Abelian plasma was simplified in arXiv:1202.0981 by linearizing Einstein's equations arou…
