Theory of heavy-quarks contribution to the quark-gluon plasma viscosity

The shear viscosity of quark gluon plasma is customarily estimated in the literature using kinetic theory, which, however, is well known to break down for dense interacting systems. Here we propose an alternative theoretical approach based on recent advances in the physics of dense interacting liqui...
