Transport Coefficients in Hot QCD
Guy D. Moore ;
Date 31 Aug 2004
Subject hep-ph
AbstractI give a physical explanation of what shear viscosity is, and what physics determines its value. Then I explain why determining the shear viscosity of the Quark-Gluon Plasma is interesting. I outline the leading-order calculation of the QGP shear viscosity (and baryon number diffusion constant), explaining why the quite complicated physics of parton splitting and Landau-Pomeranchuk-Migdal interference effects are required for its calculation. Then I briefly explore the range of applicability, emphasizing the importance of plasma instabilities.
