Strongly coupled plasma with electric and magnetic charges
read the original abstract
A number of theoretical and lattice results lead us to believe that Quark-Gluon Plasma not too far from $T_c$ contains not only electrically charged quasiparticles -- quarks and gluons -- but magnetically charged ones -- monopoles and dyons -- as well. Although binary systems like charge-monopole and charge-dyon were considered in details before in both classical and quantum settings, it is the first study of coexisting electric and magnetic particles in many-body context. We perform Molecular Dynamics study of strongly coupled plasmas with $\sim 1000$ particles and different fraction of magnetic charges. Correlation functions and Kubo formulae lead to such transport properties as diffusion constant, shear viscosity and electric conductivity: we compare the first two with empirical data from RHIC experiments as well as results from AdS/CFT correspondence. We also study a number of collective excitations in these systems.

Heavy-quark transport across the QCD crossover driven by a lattice-constrained in-medium potential
A self-consistent heavy-quark transport model using a lattice-constrained potential with Yukawa and string contributions predicts 2πT Ds ≈ 0.5-1.7 near the QCD crossover, matching lattice QCD results.
