Quark gluon plasma as a strongly coupled color-Coulombic plasma
نویسنده
چکیده
We show that the extensively studied equation of state (EOS) of strongly coupled QED plasma fits the recent lattice EOS data of gluon plasma remarkably well, with appropriate modifications to take account of color degrees of freedom and running coupling constant. Hence we conclude that the quark gluon plasma near the critical temperature is a strongly coupled color-Coulombic plasma. PACS Nos : 12.38.Mh, 12.38.Gc, 05.70.Ce, 25.75.+r, 52.25.Kn

Some Theoretical Analogies in the Description of Strongly Coupled Quark-Gluon Plasma
We study some theoretical aspects of strongly coupled quark gluon plasma, as a function of Coulomb coupling parameter Γ. We study the evaluation of dynamic properties of the BCS/BEC crossover in relativistic fluid. We also discuss some fluid dynamic aspects of the crossover at critical temperature. The shear viscosity is minimum near around the unitary limit. We have clarified the thermal fluct...

We propose that the reason for the non-ideal behavior seen in lattice simulation of quark gluon plasma (QGP) and relativistic heavy ion collisions (URHICs) experiments is that the QGP near Tc and above is strongly coupled plasma (SCP), i.e., strongly coupled quark gluon plasma (SCQGP). It is remarkable that the widely used equation of state (EoS) of SCP in QED (quantum electrodynamics) very nic...

متن کاملThe Quark-Gluon-Plasma Liquid
The quark-gluon plasma close to the critical temperature is a strongly interacting system. Using strongly coupled, classical, non-relativistic plasmas as an analogy, we argue that the quark-gluon plasma is in the liquid phase. This allows to understand experimental observations in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions and to interpret lattice QCD results. It also supports the indications of th...
متن کاملAnomalous Transport Processes in Anisotropically Expanding Quark-Gluon Plasmas
We derive an expression for the anomalous viscosity in an anisotropically expanding quark-gluon-plasma, which arises from interactions of thermal partons with dynamically generated color fields. The anomalous viscosity dominates over the collisional viscosity for large velocity gradients or weak coupling. This effect may provide an explanation for the apparent “nearly perfect” liquidity of the ...
