Journal ArticleDOI
Towards Hydrodynamics without an Entropy Current
TL;DR: A generating functional is presented which describes the equilibrium thermodynamic response of a relativistic system to external sources and provides a technique for efficiently computing n-point zero-frequency correlation functions within the hydrodynamic derivative expansion without the need to explicitly solve the equations of hydrodynamics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Entropy production in collisions of gravitational shock waves and of heavy ions
TL;DR: In this paper, the area of a marginally trapped surface formed by a head-on collision of gravitational shock waves in AdS{sub D} was calculated and a lower bound on the entropy produced after the collision was derived.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sonic booms and diffusion wakes generated by a heavy quark in thermal gauge-string duality
TL;DR: The Poynting vector generated by a heavy quark moving through a thermal state of N=4 gauge theory using the gauge-string duality is evaluated and the ratio of the energy going into sound modes to the energy coming in from the wake is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Linearized hydrodynamics from probe-sources in the gauge-string duality
Steven S. Gubser,Amos Yarom +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors study the response of an infinite, asymptotically static N = 4 plasma to a generic localized source in the probe approximation and study the conditions for the appearance of a laminar wake far behind the source and its relevance for phenomenological models used to explain dihadron correlations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Energy deposited by a quark moving in an N=4 super Yang-Mills plasma
TL;DR: In this paper, the energy-momentum tensor tensor of a massive quark is evaluated as it moves through an ρ = 4$ SYM quark-gluon plasma at constant velocity, and the energy density is quantitatively characterized by a transient at velocities above the speed of sound of the plasma.
