Extraction of the specific shear viscosity of quark-gluon plasma from two-particle transverse momentum correlations

Victor Gonzalez, Sumit Basu, Pedro Ladron de Guevara +3

The specific shear viscosity, $\eta /s$, of the quark-gluon plasma formed in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions at RHIC and LHC is estimated based on the progressive longitudinal b…
