abstract

We compute the penetration depth of a light quark moving through a large $N_c$, strongly coupled $\mathcal N = 4$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills plasma using gauge/gravity duality and a combination of analytic and numerical techniques. We find that the maximum distance a quark with energy $E$ can travel through a plasma is given by $\Delta x(E) = (\mathcal C/T) (E/T \sqrt\lambda)^{{1}/{3}}$ with $\mathcal C \approx 0.5$.

Holographic light-quark energy loss in a spinning plasma

hep-ph · 2026-06-25 · unverdicted · novelty 4.0

Holographic calculation in a spinning Myers-Perry black brane shows that higher temperature or rotation parameter a shortens light-quark stopping distance and increases instantaneous energy loss, with stronger anisotropy for transverse motion.
