Relativistic viscous hydrodynamics, conformal invariance, and holography
R. Baier, P. Romatschke, D. T. Son +2
We consider second-order viscous hydrodynamics in conformal field theories at finite temperature. We show that conformal invariance imposes powerful constraints on the form of the…
On the phase diagram of QCD at finite isospin density
Ph. de Forcrand, M. A. Stephanov, U. Wenger
Using a canonical formalism, we determine the equation of state and the phase diagram of eight-flavour QCD, as a function of temperature and isospin density. Two mechanisms are at…
Axial anomaly and magnetism of nuclear and quark matter
D. T. Son, M. A. Stephanov
We consider the response of the QCD ground state at finite baryon density to a strong magnetic field B. We point out the dominant role played by the coupling of neutral Goldstone b…
Deconstruction of Unparticles
M. A. Stephanov
We discuss properties of hypothetical scale invariant (unparticle) matter by viewing it as a tower of massive particles. We show how peculiar properties of unparticles emerge in th…
