The AdS/CFT correspondence and a classical test string approximation are used to calculate the drag force on an external quark moving in a thermal plasma of N=4 super-Yang-Mills theory. This computation is motivated by the phenomenon of jet-quenching in relativistic heavy ion collisions.

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Isospin-imbalanced strongly coupled dense matter is shown, via holography, to obey non-Abelian hydrodynamic predictions for current correlators up to the chemical-potential scale, beyond the standard ω,k ≪ T regime.

  3. Stochastic Dynamics of Heavy Quarks in Strongly Coupled Plasma

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Kolmogorov dynamics for heavy quarks in hot plasma shows significantly delayed large-momentum equilibration compared to Fokker-Planck with matched drag, due to rare low-momentum-loss events.

    hep-ph 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A pQCD energy loss model with short-pathlength corrections shows the large formation time approximation fails self-consistently and, after a one-parameter fit, describes RHIC small systems while failing LHC small systems.
