We present a lattice study of the momentum broadening experienced by a hard parton in the quark-gluon plasma. In particular, the contributions to this real-time phenomenon from soft modes are extracted from a set of gauge-invariant…
We review the AdS/CFT description of gauge theory plasmas for non-experts. We discuss the low shear viscosity, jet quenching, and J/psi-suppression, which are three major signatures for the quark-gluon plasma observed at RHIC experiments.
The widespread notion that jets quenched in a Quark-Gluon-Plasma (QGP) are similar in their parton flavor composition to jets in vacuum is critically examined. We demonstrate that while the soft to semi-hard [low to intermediate transverse…
