Microscopic Description of Critical Bubbles
Carlos Hoyos, David Mateos, Wilke van der Schee +1
First-order phase transitions occur through the nucleation of critical bubbles of the stable phase within the metastable phase. Using holography, we present a fully microscopic des…
Nuclear Physics Confronts Relativistic Collisions Of Isobars
Giuliano Giacalone, Jiangyong Jia, Vittorio Somà +43
High-energy collisions involving the isobars Zr and Ru have been performed in 2018 at Brookhaven National Laboratory's Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) a…
Cosmic censorship in a (dual) collider
Marc Aragonès Fontboté, David Mateos, Guillem Pérez Martín +2
We investigate cosmic censorship in anti-de Sitter space in holographic models in which the ground state is described by a good singularity. These include supersymmetric truncation…
Quantum Null Energy Condition and its (non)saturation in 2d CFTs
Christian Ecker, Daniel Grumiller, Wilke van der Schee +2
We consider the Quantum Null Energy Condition (QNEC) for holographic conformal field theories in two spacetime dimensions (CFT). We show that QNEC saturates for all states dual…
Heavy Ion Collisions: The Big Picture, and the Big Questions
Wit Busza, Krishna Rajagopal, Wilke van der Schee
Heavy ion collisions quickly form a droplet of quark-gluon plasma (QGP) with a remarkably small viscosity. We give an accessible introduction to how to study this smallest and hott…
