Holographic Complexity Equals Bulk Action? by Brown, Adam R., Susskind, Leonard, Swingle, Brian, Zhao, Ying, Roberts, Daniel Adam

“…We illustrate and test the conjecture in the context of neutral, charged, and rotating black holes in anti–de Sitter spacetime, as well as black holes perturbed with static shells and with shock waves. This conjecture evolved from a previous conjecture that complexity is dual to spatial volume, but appears to be a major improvement over the original. …”

Localized shocks by Stanford, Douglas, Susskind, Leonard, Roberts, Daniel Adam

“…In gauge/gravity duality, they are related to Einstein-Rosen bridges supported by localized shock waves. We find a geometrical correspondence between these two descriptions, generalizing earlier work in the spatially homogeneous case.…”

Constraints on millicharged particles with low-threshold germanium detectors at Kuo-Sheng Reactor Neutrino Laboratory by Singh, L., Chen, J. W., Chi, H. C., Liu, C.-P., Pandey, M. K., Wong, H. T., Wu, C. P., Agartioglu, M., Deniz, M., Li, H. B., Lin, S. T., Sharma, V., Singh, M. K., Singh, V., Yue, Q.

“…Millicharged particles could also be candidates for dark matter and become relativistic through acceleration by supernova explosion shock waves. The atomic ionization cross section of χ[subscript q] with matter are derived with the equivalent photon approximation. …”

Equilibration and hydrodynamics at strong and weak coupling by van der Schee, Wilke

“…At (infinitely) strong coupling it is possible to mimic heavy ion collisions by using holography, which leads to a dual description of colliding gravitational shock waves. The plasma formed hydrodynamises within a time of 0.41/T recent extension found corrections to this result for finite values of the coupling, when η/s is bigger than the canonical value of 1/4π, which leads to t∼(0.41+1.6(η/s−1/4π))/T [S. …”
