Relativistic heavy ion collisions have reached energies that enable the creation of a novel state of matter termed the quark-gluon plasma. Many observables point to a picture of the medium as rapidly equilibrating and expanding as a nearly…

In high energy collisions, a dense, strongly interacting medium could be created, the quark gluon plasma. In rapid expansion, from the soup of quarks and gluons a gas of resonance and stable particles is formed at the chemical freeze-out…
The shear viscosity of quark gluon plasma is customarily estimated in the literature using kinetic theory, which, however, is well known to break down for dense interacting systems. Here we propose an alternative theoretical approach based…
