Non-conformal holographic Gauss-Bonnet hydrodynamics

Abstract We study hydrodynamics of four-dimensional non-conformal holographic plasma with non-equal central charges c ≠ a at the ultraviolet fixed point. We compute equation of state, the speed of sound waves, transport coefficients (shear and bulk viscosities), and discuss causality. We study the a...
