We evaluate the Poynting vector generated by a heavy quark moving through a thermal state of N=4 gauge theory using AdS/CFT. A significant diffusion wake is observed as well as a Mach cone. We discuss the ratio of the energy going into sound modes to the energy coming in from the wake.

A flow-matching generative model for event-by-event jet-induced hydro response in high-energy heavy-ion collisions
A flow-matching generative model trained on CoLBT-hydro data conditionally generates marginal final-state hadron spectra from jet-induced hydro responses in 0-10% Pb+Pb collisions at 5.02 TeV, matching training data s...
