Shear Transport Coefficients from Gauge/Gravity Correspondence
J. I. Kapusta, T. Springer
We study the shear mode in the gauge/gravity correspondence at finite temperature. First, we confirm the general formula for the shear viscosity in an arbitrary background metric w…
Accelerator Disaster Scenarios, the Unabomber, and Scientific Risks
Joseph I. Kapusta
The possibility that experiments at high-energy accelerators could create new forms of matter that would ultimately destroy the Earth has been considered several times in the past…
Cosmological Black Hole Formation due to QCD and Electroweak Phase Transitions
Joseph I. Kapusta, Todd Springer
We solve dynamical equations of motion to determine the conditions under which an over-dense region in the early universe will lead to collapse to a black hole, starting from horiz…
Low Mass Dimuons Produced in Relativistic Nuclear Collisions
Jorg Ruppert, Charles Gale, Thorsten Renk +2
The NA60 experiment has measured low-mass muon pair production in In-In collisions at 158 A GeV with unprecedented precision. We show that this data is reproduced very well by a dy…
Strongly Interacting Low Viscosity Matter Created in Heavy Ion Collisions
Joseph I. Kapusta
Substantial collective flow is observed in collisions between large nuclei at high energy, as evidenced by single-particle transverse momentum distributions and by azimuthal correl…
