Description:
Author(s): Alejandro Ayala, Isabel Dominguez, Jamal Jalilian-Marian, and Maria Elena Tejeda-Yeomans The authors describe a means to infer a relationship between two long sought-after transport coefficients of the quark-gluon plasma: the ratio of shear viscosity to entropy density ( η / s ) and a coefficient, q ̂ , that describes transverse momentum exchange between a fast parton or jet and the surrounding medium. Comparison to experimental data should be forthcoming. [Phys. Rev. C 94, 024913] Published Mon Aug 22, 2016
