Quark Soup al dente: Applied Superstring Theory
We discuss the application of the AdS/CFT correspondence to possibly gain new
physical insights for the strongly coupled quark-gluon plasma. This article
provides an informal summary of a talk given by RCM at the 18th International
Conference on General Relativity and Gravitation in July 2007.Comment: This article provides an informal summary of a talk given by RCM at

Turbulence and Holography
We examine the interplay between recent advances in quantum gravity and the
problem of turbulence. In particular, we argue that in the gravitational
context the phenomenon of turbulence is intimately related to the properties of
spacetime foam. In this framework we discuss the relation of turbulence and
holography and the interpretation of the Kolmogorov scaling in the quantum
gravitational setting.Comment: 19 pages, LaTeX; version 2: reference adde
