Kiminad A. Mamo, Ho-Ung Yee
TL;DR
This paper investigates how magnetic fields influence the thermalization process of strongly coupled quark-gluon plasma using holographic models, revealing that magnetic fields universally accelerate thermalization across different dimensions.
Contribution
It demonstrates that magnetic fields universally hasten the thermalization of strongly coupled gauge theory plasma within the holographic framework, across multiple space-time dimensions.
Findings
Magnetic fields accelerate plasma thermalization.
Thermalization time decreases with increasing magnetic field.
Effect consistent across different space-time dimensions.
Abstract
We study thermalization of strongly coupled gauge theory plasma in the presence of magnetic field using the AdS/CFT correspondence. We utilize the falling energy-shell model as a holographic description of gauge theory plasma undergoing thermalization, and find the effect of magnetic field on thermalization time in various space-time dimensions. Our results demonstrate that magnetic field universally hastens thermalization of strongly coupled gauge theory plasma.
