Hydrodynamization Time Near a Critical Point From a Holographic Bjorken Flow
Abstract
This proceedings reviews recent progress in the study of far-from-equilibrium hydrodynamization process of strongly interacting matter in the vicinity of a critical point. From a full non-linear evolution of a gravitational theory dual to a conformal strongly coupled plasma, and starting from a non-equilibrium initial state, it is verified that the time it takes for the plasma to acquire hydrodynamic behavior greatly increases near the critical point.
