Einstein

 We should be happy to see a bit of Einstein in each other , even if it measures in milligramms!

 Why this picture?  He seems to be less professorial and happier than in most other photos  The beach looks like Stony Brook (?) where he indeed rented for few summers. He was at those beaches when was asked to write the famous letter to Roosevelt

Outline

The puzzle: RHIC findings -- collective flows and jet quenching -- QGP is very strongly coupled! What exactly it means?

Creation of black holes: new meaning of dissipation transport summary; two explanations -AdS/CFT and sQGP with monopoles - seem to work. Summary:

The main puzzle: Quark-Gluon Plasma is unusual matter

• RHIC experiments (2000-now) AuAu at 200 GeV/N • QGP fireball of few10 3 particles behaves hydrodynamically • Viscosity 10 times lower than of anything else: the best known liquid!

• Jets lose energy very strongly --drag force is order of magnitude larger than expected from kinetic estimates, •

Same for heavy quarks

• Energy is not going into forward cone of radiation, as expected perturbatively, but to a ``conical flow”

• • •

Sonic boom from quenched jets

Casalderrey,ES,Teaney, hep ph/0410067; H.Stocker…

Wake effect or “sonic boom”

the energy deposited by jets into liquid-like strongly coupled QGP must go into conical shock waves We solved relativistic hydrodynamics and got the flow picture If there are start and end points, there are two spheres and a cone tangent to both

Two hydro modes can be excited

(from our linearized hydro solution):

a ``diffuson” a sound

PHENIX jet pair distribution

Note: it is only projection of a cone on phi Note 2: there is also a minimum in at 180 degr., with a value Consistent with background

The most peripheral bin, here there is no QGP

AdS/CFT from gravity in AdS

to strongly coupled CFT (N=4 SYM) plasma

what people dream about for LHC experments -- a black hole formation - does happen, in each and every RHIC AuAu event => thermalization, All information falls into black hole: only total entropy=area of newly formed b.h.horizon = remains …

The first gauge-string duality found in 1997

 AdS/CFT correpondence known as ``Maldacena duality”  Along the long path illuminated by Witten,Polyakov,Klebanov…

The duality setting

• CFT (conformal gauge theory) N=4 SYM a cousin of QCD (chromodynamics=theory of strong interaction) in which the coupling AdS  (anti-de-Sitter)

=g 2 N c does not run.

• It lives on the 4-dim boundary of 5-d curved space where (super) gravity is a description of (super) string theory • Correspondence dictionary: everything in the “bulk” reflects 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 complect plane and get math to simplify the problem.

What “strongly coupled” means

• QED  e 2 /hbar c=1/137

<<1

• Atoms and positronium are weakly bound E=m e (1  rel.corr

• What happens as  grows? Klein-Gordon (Dirac) eqns predict particles

fall at each other

(1s state falls at and then other levels as it grows • Strong coupling is large  g 2 N c =  N c >>1 yet AdS/CFT told us

charges do not fall

1s state has energy O(M/ sqrt(  and

The 5th coordinate

• z is the 5th coordinate, dim=length=1/momentum • its physical meaning is ``scale” as in renorm.group

• z=>0 is ``high scale” UV or very high energies, z=>infinity is low scale or IR • ds 2 =(-dt 2 +dx 1 2 +dx 2 2 +dx 3 2 +dz 2 )/z 2 so distances in z are logarithmic. Light speed is still 1 in all directions • Gravity force is acting toward large z, so “stones” fall there

The story of Maldacena’s dipole

(example of how little we understand N=4 SYM) • Maldacena,Rey,Yee -98 one of the first apps: • The pending string (=flux tube) has minimal action • Modified Coulomb law at strong coupling, sqrt of the coupling << coupling • Can it be just a factor, like dielectric constant?

Can one get it resumming diagrams?

• ‘tHooft said large Nc leads to

short time of color correlations! Fields of both charges can only cancel each other if emitted nearsimulaneously Thus it is not just a dielectric constant, r and angular depenedence are also changed!

One can also do charge+monopole

• J.Minahan 98 E=- f(g 2 /4  ) sqrt(N)/L with self-dual f(g 2 /4  ) = f( 1/(g 2 /4  ) • We calculated stress tensor from this configuration • In weakly coupled gauge theory Poynting T 0i rotates around the line of two charges (J.J.Thomson) but we found it to be zero at strongly coupled CFT!

Heavy quark diffusion

J.Casalderrey+ D.Teaney,hep-ph/0605199,hep-th/0701123 One quark A (fisherman) is N In our world, T The other (fish) in I Antiworld W (=conj.amplitude) String connects them and conduct waves in one direction through the black hole O R L D W O R L D

Heavy quark in CFT plasma

has a string deformed by ``hot wind” Herzog,Yaffe,Gubser… May06 calculated the drag force = momentum Flow down the string

Einstein relation between Drag and diffusion is Fulfilled: But how graviy knows?

subsonic supersonic

from P.Chesler,L.Yaffe

(also Gubser et al have detailed papers On this) Both groups made amazingly detailed Description of the conical flow from AdS/CFT=> Note that it is not hydro but direct soluiton: one can e.g.

Be sure the shape of the wave is correct Even at micro scales

Gravity dual to the (heavy quark) collision: “Lund model” in AdS/CFT (Lin,ES hep-ph/0610168 ) If colliding objects made of heavy quarks • • Stretching strings -- are falling under the AdS gravity and don’t break analytic solution at v

non hydrodynamical explosion

observed in our 4d world AdS 5 Center= Extremal b.h.

• • Holographic image of a falling string

(as far as we know the first time dependent hologramm)

• • T 00 , T oi

Cannot be reprensented as hydrodynamical => anisotropic pressure in the ``comoving frame”

Gravity dual for the heavy ion collisions

• AdS metric corresponds to extreme BH (mass is minimal for its charge and no horizon) • As collision creates falling “debris”, they will form a non-extreme BH with a horizon Nastase 03 • This can only be done via non-linearized Einstein eqns • Expanding/cooling fireball= departing horizon (Sin,ES and Zahed 04, …) • Asimptotic late-time solution in 1+1 dim is found , stretching BH (Janik-Peschanski 05)

New meaning of dissipation •

• Relaxation=formation of a horizon (trapping surface) where information is lost

• Its area gives the entropy:

(is it true for dynamically stretched t-dependent horizon? Yes to PJ leading order only)

• It

returns pure thermal Hawking radiation => with

hydrodynamical hologramm

• W.Israel => collapsing shell gets heated, explains the origin of entropy production

Another duality for sQGP: electric/magnetic fight

Fraction of quasiparticles are

magnetically Charged (monopoles and dyons)

At Tconfinement.

New (compactified) phase diagram describing an electric-vs-magnetic competition

Dirac condition (old QED-type units e^2=alpha, deliberately no Nc yet) <- n=2 adjoint Thus at the e=g line Near deconfinement line g->0 in IR (Landau’s U(1) asymptotic freedom) => e-strong-coupling because g in weak! Why is this diagram better? => There are e-flux tubes in all blue region, not only in the confined phase! In fact, they are maximally enhanced at Tc

• • Strong coupling in plasma physics: Gamma= <|Epot|>/ >>1 gas => liquid => solid

This is of course for +/- Abelian charges , But ``green” and ``anti green” quarks do the same!

local order would be preserved in a liquid

also, as it is in molten solts

(strongly coupled TCP with /=O(60 ), about 3-10 in sQGP)

Gelman,ES, Zahed,nucl th/0601029 With a non-Abelian color => Wong eqn

Gas, liquid solid

So why is such plasma a good liquid? Because of magnetic-bottle trapping:

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

We found that

two charges

play ping pong by a monopole without even moving!

Chaotic, regular and escape trajectories for a monopole, all different in initial condition by 1/1000 only!

short transport summary

• • log(inverse viscosity s/eta )- vs. log(inverse heavy q diffusion const D*2piT ) (avoids messy discussion of couplings) ->Stronger coupled -> Most perfect liquid RHIC data: very small viscosity and D vs theory - AdS/CFT and MD (soon to be explained)

4pi

MD results, with specified monopole fraction Weak coupling end => (Perturbative results shown here) Both related to mean free path 50-50% E/M is the most ideal liquid

From RHIC to LHC: (no answers, only 1bn$ questions)

(I don’t mean the price of LHC but ALICE)

 Will ``perfect liquid ” be still there?

 Is jet quenching as strong, especially for c,b quark jets and much larger pt?

 Is matter response (conical flow at Mach angle) similar? (This is most sensitive to viscosity…)

Conclusions

Strongly coupled QGP is produced at RHIC T=(1-2)Tc

 

This is the region where transition from magnetic to electric dominance happen at T<1.4 Tc still Lots of magnetic objects => E-flux tubes

Good liquid because of magnetic bottle trapping

Classical MD is being done, the lowest viscosity for 50-50% electric/magneti c plasma

AdS/CFT => natural applications of string theory, N=4 SYM is not QCD: nonconfining and Strongly coupled, sQGP is OK

RHIC data on transport (eta,D), ADS/CFT and classical MD all qualitatively agree!

Are these two pictures related?

Bose-Einstein condensation of interacting particles (=monopoles) (with M.Cristoforetti,Trento)

 Feynman theory (for liquid He4): polygon jumps BEC if exp( ∆S(jump))>.16 or so (1/N naighbours ) We calculated ``instantons” for particles jumping paths in

a liquid and solid He4

incuding realistic atomic potentials and understood 2 known effects: (i) Why Tc grows with repulsive interaction<= because a jump proceeds faster under the barrier (ii) no supersolid He => density too large and action when above critical Marco is doing Path Integral simulations with permutations numerically, to refine conditions

BEC transitions

take place

Jumping paths: Feynman, interacting

 At e=m line both effective gluons and monopoles have masses M about 3T exp( 3)<<1 is our classical parameter (Boltzmann statistics is good enough)  At T=Tc monopoles presumably go into Bose Einsetein condensation => new semiclassical theory of it for strongly interacting Bose gases, tested on He4  (M.Cristoforetti, ES, in progress)

Bose condensation versus repulsive scattering length

BEC (confinement) condition for monopoles

For charged Bose gas (monopoles) the action for the jump can be calculated similarly, but relativistically; jumps in space d and in time Comparable) ∆S=M sqrt(d 2 +(1/Tc) 2 )+ ∆S(interaction) = Sc =1.65-1.89

(first value from Einstein ideal gas, second from liquid He) provides the monopole mass M at Tc M Tc approx 1.5 => M as low as 300 MeV
