Non-equilibrium steady states in quantum critical systems with Lifshitz scaling

Daniel Fernandez, Aruna Rajagopal, Larus Thorlacius

We study out-of-equilibrium energy transport in a quantum critical fluid with Lifshitz scaling symmetry following a local quench between two semi-infinite fluid reservoirs. The lat…

Time dependence of entanglement for steady state formation in AdS/CFT

Mario Flory, Johanna Erdmenger, Daniel Fernandez +3

We consider a holographic model of two 1+1-dimensional heat baths at different temperatures joined at time , such that a steady state heat-current region forms and expands in…

Time evolution of entanglement for holographic steady state formation

Johanna Erdmenger, Daniel Fernandez, Mario Flory +3

Within gauge/gravity duality, we consider the local quench-like time evolution obtained by joining two 1+1-dimensional heat baths at different temperatures at time t=0. A steady st…

Conductivities from attractors

Johanna Erdmenger, Daniel Fernandez, Prieslei Goulart +1

In the context of applications of the AdS/CFT correspondence to condensed matter physics, we compute conductivities for field theory duals of dyonic planar black holes in 3+1-dimen…

Thermodynamics of anisotropic branes

Daniel Ávila, Daniel Fernández, Leonardo Patiño +1

We study the thermodynamics of flavor D7-branes embedded in an anisotropic black brane solution of type IIB supergravity. The flavor branes undergo a phase transition between a `Mi…

Towards Collisions of Inhomogeneous Shockwaves in AdS

Daniel Fernández

We perform a numerical simulation of the evolution of inhomogeneities with transverse profile in a collision of gravitational shockwaves in asymptotically anti-de Sitter spacetime.…

New Transport Properties of Anisotropic Holographic Superfluids

Johanna Erdmenger, Daniel Fernandez, Hansjörg Zeller

We complete the analysis of transport phenomena in p-wave superfluids within gauge/gravity duality, using the SU(2) Einstein-Yang-Mills model with backreaction. In particular, we a…

Quarkonium dissociation by anisotropy

Mariano Chernicoff, Daniel Fernandez, David Mateos +1

We compute the screening length for quarkonium mesons moving through an anisotropic, strongly coupled N=4 super Yang-Mills plasma by means of its gravity dual. We present the resul…

Jet quenching in a strongly coupled anisotropic plasma

Mariano Chernicoff, Daniel Fernandez, David Mateos +1

The jet quenching parameter of an anisotropic plasma depends on the relative orientation between the anisotropic direction, the direction of motion of the parton, and the direction…

Drag force in a strongly coupled anisotropic plasma

Mariano Chernicoff, Daniel Fernandez, David Mateos +1

We calculate the drag force experienced by an infinitely massive quark propagating at constant velocity through an anisotropic, strongly coupled N=4 plasma by means of its gravity…

Transport in Anisotropic Superfluids: A Holographic Description

Johanna Erdmenger, Patrick Kerner, Hansjörg Zeller

We study transport phenomena in p-wave superfluids in the context of gauge/gravity duality. Due to the spacetime anisotropy of this system, the tensorial structure of the transport…

Cherenkov mesons as in-medium quark energy loss

Jorge Casalderrey-Solana, Daniel Fernandez, David Mateos

We recently showed that a heavy quark moving sufficiently fast through a quark-gluon plasma may lose energy by Cherenkov-radiating mesons [1]. Here we review our previous holograph…

A New Mechanism of Quark Energy Loss

Jorge Casalderrey-Solana, Daniel Fernandez, David Mateos

We show that a heavy quark moving sufficiently fast through a quark-gluon plasma may lose energy by Cherenkov-radiating mesons. We demonstrate that this takes place in all strongly…
