Transverse interactions and transport in relativistic quark-gluon and electromagnetic plasmas
Abstract
In calculating the transport properties of relativistic electromagnetic or quark-gluon plasmas microscopically, one encounters the problem of divergent constituent cross sections arising from the exchange of transverse photons or gluons. Inclusion of Landau damping of the virtual quanta exchanged provides an effective long-wavelength cutoff. Dominance of Landau damping over a possible magnetic mass in QCD is demonstrated in the weak-coupling limit. The viscosities of a pure gluon plasma and a quark-gluon plasma are calculated in weak coupling from a variational solution to the Boltzmann equation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
