Variation of Entanglement Entropy in Scattering Process
In a scattering process, the final state is determined by an initial state
and an S-matrix. We focus on two-particle scattering processes and consider the
entanglement between these particles. For two types initial states; i.e., an
unentangled state and an entangled one, we calculate perturbatively the change
of entanglement entropy from the initial state to the final one. Then we show a
few examples in a field theory and in quantum mechanics.Comment: 13 pages; v2: refs. adde
Density Dependence of Transport Coefficients from Holographic Hydrodynamics
We study the transport coefficients of Quark-Gluon-Plasma in finite
temperature and finite baryon density. We use AdS/QCD of charged AdS black hole
background with bulk-filling branes identifying the U(1) charge as the baryon
number. We calculate the diffusion constant, the shear viscosity and the
thermal conductivity to plot their density and temperature dependences.
Hydrodynamic relations between those are shown to hold exactly. The diffusion
constant and the shear viscosity are decreasing as a function of density for
fixed total energy. For fixed temperature, the fluid becomes less diffusible
and more viscous for larger baryon density.Comment: LaTeX, 1+33 pages, 6 figures, references adde
Comments on Baryon Melting in Quark Gluon Plasma with Gluon Condensation
We consider a black hole solution with a non-trivial dilaton from IIB super
gravity which is expected to describe a strongly coupled hot gauge plasma with
non-vanishing gluon condensation present. We construct a rotating and moving
baryon to probe the screening and phases of the plasma. Melting of the baryons
in hot plasma in this background had been studied previously, however, we show
that baryons melt much lower temperature than has been suggested previously.Comment: 3 figures, 12 page
