Experimental frontiers(not to be discussed)

High energy: LHCWill ``perfect liquid” be still there?

High luminocity at RHICLow energy/high barion density: RHIC/lowS,NA61 and Fair/GSI => the critical and the “ softest” p oints

Fundamental questions (answers?)

• What is the dynamics of confinement/deconfinement?(­) •  What are the magnitude and T­dependence of electric 

and magnetic couplings in sQGP? What are the masses and the role of magnetically charged quasiparticles in sQGP? (+­) 

• Why is quark­gluon plasma (sQGP) at RHIC  such a good liquid? (small η/s, TDc ,large dp/dt)   (++)

• Is it only true in the RHIC domain T=(1­2)Tc?  Will we see sQGP signals at LHC as well?  (­­)

• AdS/CFT equilibrium results eta/s, jet quenching, conical flow, photon emission. Can one obtain a complete “gravity dual to RHIC” including equilibration/entropy?(+)

• Can we even qualitatively understand AdS/CFT results without duality? (­­)

Thermo and hydrodynamics:    can they be used at sub­fm scale?

• Here are three people who asked this question first:• Fermi (1951) proposed strong interaction leading to 

equilibration: <n>about  s1/4

• Pomeranchuck (1952) introduced freezeout• Landau (1953) explained that one should use hydro in 

between, saving Fermi’s prediction via entropy conservation {he also suggested it should work because coupling runs to strong at small distance! No asymptotic freedom yet in 1950’s…}

My own hydro history• Hydro for e+e­ as a spherical explosion:    

PLB 34 (1971) 509  => killed in 1973 by as.freedom and in 1976 by 

SLAC discovery of jets in e+e­• Looking for it in pp: transverse flow at ISR, 

ES+Zhirov, PLB (1979) 253  =>Killed by apparent absence of transverse  

flow in pp⇒ ES+Hung, prc57 (1998) 1891, radial flow at 

PbPb at CERN SPS worked (but only with correct differential freezeout surfaces!)

• main RHIC finding: Strong radial and elliptic flows are very well described by ideal hydro 2001­2002: hydro describes radial and elliptic flows for all secondaries , pt<2GeV, centralities, rapidities, A (Cu,Au)…  Most theorists/experimentalists were very sceptical but were eventially convinced and the term picked up by D.Teaney and myself in 2003  

 => ``the most perfect liquid known” gets official=>AIP declared this to be discovery #1 of 2005 in physics 

• Jets destroyed and their energy goes into hydrodynamical ``conical flow”                    H.Stocker 04, Casalderrey,ES,Teaney 04….

Btw, Mach cone ideas of 1970’s did not work because nucleaiAre not such perfect liquid as sQGP…

•Corrections are small for such eta/s Especially at final/later time•v2(pt) is changing at the tail and improvesAgreement at pt>1 GeV  •But (my comment) relying on small tails is dangerous

As effect of viscosity is small O(10%), thus all other uncertainties have to be included: 

initial deformation shown by Raju, but one has to deal with ALL of them

• Color glass produces a bit different initial shape with sharper edge

• Include fluctuations (crucial at large b)

4πη/s<1? Generalized viscosity from AdS/CFT (sound) 

decreases with k/T, (although we don’t know why)

• M.Lublinsky+ES, hep­ph0704.1647 PRC ,and in progress

• 4πη/s(k/2πT,ω/2 πT) • Im and Re• Note reduction of Re at 

larger k/2πT • Elliptic flow forms early, for 

peripheral collisions the almond is thin enough that this effect may play a role: again larger deformed systems needed

Deconfinement and        Electric­magnetic 

fight/competition in sQGP

 . 

Magnetic quasiparticles ­­ monopoles and dyons ­­are important/dominant at T< 1.5Tc

This affect thermodynamics andespecially transport due tonontrivial “magnetic bottle” effect

• ‘t Hooft and Polyakov discovered monopoles in YM gauge theories

• ‘t Hooft and Mandelstamm suggested dual superconductor mechanism for confinement

• Seiberg and Witten shown that it does work in N=2 SYM

 electric/magnetic couplings (e/g) must run in the opposite directions!   Old good Dirac condition (in QED-type units e2= αs)

at the e=g “ equilibrium line”

αs(el)= αs(mag) =1(the best liquid here?)

Near deconfinement line monopoles much lighter than gluons/quarks

=>αs(mag) small (Landau pole)

=> So αs(el) must be strong!

Very recent data (thanks to M.D’Elia)confirm that correlation strength 

increases with T, indeed opposite to electric

So at least the magnetic coupling does behave as Landau thought

Bose­Einstein condensation of  strongly interacting particles 

(with M.Cristoforetti,now TU Munich)

• Feynman theory   polygon jumps    BEC if ∆S(jump)<Sc=1.65­1.8

• We calculated ``instantons” for particles jumping paths in a liquid and

solid He4 incuding realistic atomic potentials and confirmed it semiclassically

• Marco is doing Path Integral simulations with permutations numerically, to refine conditions when BEC transitions take place• BEC (confinement)  for monopoles•  the action calculated relativistically

∆S=M sqrt(d2+(1/Tc)2) = Sc=> M(mon, T= Tc)=O(300 MeV)

So why is such plasma a good liquid? Because of magnetic­bottle trapping:

Note that Lorentz force is O(v)!

Monopole rotates around the electric field line, bouncing off both charges (whatever the sign)

monopole  without even moving!

• Strategy: calculate in the “bulk”, then project on the boundary

• Hint; think of extra dimension as a complex variable trick: instead of functions on the real axes one may think of poles in a complex plane

The story of two membranes:(Many strings falling together)

• Imagine 2 walls of heavy quarks => multiple strings falling   (e.g.no dependence on transverse coordinates x2,x3)

• The falling object is thus not a string but 3d membrane (or fabric) to be called Mm (for matter) 

• => another (more famous) membrane Mh, (of the “membrane paradigm”) is hovering just above the horizon

The horizon membrane can change shape easily provided its area (=entropy) 

is preserved as soap film       

• Mh is 3­dimensional in 5d, if stretched longitudinally a la Hubble x=vt,  it moves in z=O(t1/3)=1/r so A=4S= O(x r3)=const (Janik et al)

Questions to think about• Is this “two membrane paradigm” a 

AdS/CFT  analog to top­down + down­up cascades?

(collisional and bremmstrahlung equilibration) • Are instabilities/excitation of  falling 

strings analogs of plasma instabilities (filamentation)?  Unruh T?

• How exactly flling strings get exactly the  Bekenstein entropy?

Conclusions• Strongly coupled 

QGP   produced at RHIC is at        T=(1­2)Tc =>

•  This is the region where electric/magnetic couplings cross 

• AdS/CFT =>  natural applications to sQGP. In equilibrium almost done (but not understood)

• RHIC data on transport (eta/s,D),  

ADS/CFT and electric/magnetic QGP qualitatively  agree!

• Are these two pictures related?
