Black Branes in a Box: Hydrodynamics, Stability, and Criticality
We study the effective hydrodynamics of neutral black branes enclosed in a
finite cylindrical cavity with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We focus on how
the Gregory-Laflamme instability changes as we vary the cavity radius R. Fixing
the metric at the cavity wall increases the rigidity of the black brane by
hindering gradients of the redshift on the wall. In the effective fluid, this
is reflected in the growth of the squared speed of sound. As a consequence,
when the cavity is smaller than a critical radius the black brane becomes
dynamically stable. The correlation with the change in thermodynamic stability
is transparent in our approach. We compute the bulk and shear viscosities of
the black brane and find that they do not run with R. We find mean-field theory
critical exponents near the critical point.Comment: 23 pages, 3 figures. v2: added comments on first-order phase
