Schwinger-Keldysh effective action for hydrodynamics with approximate symmetries
Masaru Hongo, Noriyuki Sogabe, Mikhail A. Stephanov +1
We study the hydrodynamic theories with approximate symmetries in the recently developed effective action approach on the Schwinger-Keldysh (SK) contour. We employ the method of sp…

The state-of-the-art theoretical formalism for a covariant description of non-Gaussian fluctuation dynamics in relativistic fluids is discussed.
Non-Gaussian fluctuation dynamics in relativistic fluids

We consider non-equilibrium evolution of non-Gaussian fluctuations within relativistic hydrodynamics relevant for the QCD critical point search in heavy-ion collision experiments.…

We compute the relaxation rate of the spin density of heavy quarks in a perturbative QCD plasma to leading-log order in the coupling constant . The spin relaxation rate in…

Using the second law of local thermodynamics and the first-order Palatini formalism, we formulate relativistic spin hydrodynamics for quantum field theories with Dirac fermions, su…

Kenji Fukushima, Yoshimasa Hidaka, Ho-Ung Yee
Superfluid vortices are quantum excitations carrying quantized amount of orbital angular momentum in a phase where global symmetry is spontaneously broken. We address a question of…

We derive a set of nontrivial relations between second-order transport coefficients which follow from the second law of thermodynamics upon considering a regime close to uniform ro…

In the context of the search for the QCD critical point using non-Gaussian fluctuations, we obtain the evolution equations for non-Gaussian cumulants to the leading order of the sy…

To describe dynamics of bulk and fluctuations near the QCD critical point we develop general relativistic fluctuation formalism for a fluid carrying baryon charge. Feedback of fluc…

Weyl fermions with nonlinear dispersion have appeared in real world systems, such as in the Weyl semi-metals and topological insulators. We consider the most general form of Dirac…

We compute the dynamical relaxation times for chiral transport phenomena in strongly coupled regime using the AdS/CFT correspondence. These relaxation times can be a useful proxy f…

Classical electrodynamics in flat 3+1 space-time has a very special retarded propagator delta(x^2) localized on the light cone, so that a particle does not interact with its past f…
Jet Quenching via Gravitational Radiation in Thermal AdS
Edward Shuryak, Ho-Ung Yee, Ismail Zahed
We argue that classical bulk gravitational radiation effects in AdS/CFT, previously ignored because of their subleading nature in the 1/Nc-expansion, are magnified by powers of lar…
