Far-from-equilibrium heavy quark energy loss at strong coupling

We study the energy loss of a heavy quark propagating through the matter produced in the collision of two sheets of energy [P. M. Chesler and L. G. Yaffe, Phys. Rev. Lett. 106, 021601 (2011) [arXiv:1011.3562 [hep-th]].]. Even though this matter is initially far-from-equilibrium we find that, when wr...
