متن کاملOn Drag Forces and Jet Quenching in Strongly-Coupled Plasmas
We compute the drag force experienced by a heavy quark that moves through plasma in a gauge theory whose dual description involves arbitrary metric and dilaton fields. As a concrete application, we consider the cascading gauge theory at temperatures high above the deconfining scale, where we obtain a drag force with a non-trivial velocity dependence. We compare our results with the jet-quenchin...
متن کاملDrag and jet quenching of heavy quarks in a strongly coupled N = 2 ∗ plasma
The drag of a heavy quark and the jet quenching parameter are studied in the strongly coupled N = 2∗ plasma using the AdS/CFT correspondence. Both increase in units of the spatial string tension as the theory departs from conformal invariance. The description of heavy quark dynamics using a Langevin equation is also considered. It is found that the difference between the velocity dependent fact...
متن کاملPlasma Effects in Jet Quenching
We consider the bremsstrahlung energy loss of high energy partons moving in the quarkgluon plasma, at weak coupling. We show that the rates for these processes receive large O(g) corrections from classical (nonabelian) plasma physics effects, which are calculated. In the high-energy (deep LPM) regime these corrections can be absorbed in a change of the transverse momentum broadening coefficient...
متن کاملOn jet quenching parameters in strongly coupled non-conformal gauge theories
Recently Liu, Rajagopal and Wiedemann (LRW) [1] proposed a first principle, nonperturbative quantum field theoretic definition of “jet quenching parameter” q̂ used in models of medium-induced radiative parton energy loss in nucleus-nucleus collisions at RHIC. Relating q̂ to a short-distance behavior of a certain light-like Wilson loop, they used gauge theory-string theory correspondence to evalua...
