N=2* 血浆的体积粘度

Bulk viscosity of N=2* plasma

Alex Buchel, Chris Pagnutti

摘要:

本文利用规范理论/弦论对应研究了强耦合、质量形变SU(N_c)N=4超对称杨-米尔斯等离子体的体粘滞系数,也称为N=2^* 规范理论.对于广泛的质量范围,我们确认了arXiv:0708.3459中提出的体积粘度界限。对于一定的质量选择,理论经历了具有发散比热c_V ~的相变。|1-T_c/T| ^(-1/2).结果表明,尽管体粘滞系数随T -> T_c迅速增大,但在临界点附近仍保持有限。

英文摘要:

We use gauge theory/string theory correspondence to study the bulk viscosity of strongly coupled, mass deformed SU(N_c) N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills plasma, also known as N=2^* gauge theory. For a wide range of masses we confirm the bulk viscosity bound proposed in arXiv:0708.3459. For a certain choice of masses, the theory undergoes a phase transition with divergent specific heat c_V ~ |1-T_c/T|^(-1/2). We show that, although bulk viscosity rapidly grows as T -> T_c, it remains finite in the vicinity of the critical point.
