Abstract: We determine finite temperature corrections to the heavy-quark (static) potential as a function of the shear viscosity-to-entropy density ratio in a strongly coupled, large-${N}_{c}$ conformal field theory dual to five-dimensional Gauss-Bonnet gravity. We find that these corrections are even smaller than those predicted by perturbative QCD at distances relevant for small bound states in a deconfined plasma. Obtaining the dominant temperature and viscosity dependence of quarkonium binding energies will require a theory where conformal invariance is broken in such a way that the free energy associated with a single heavy quark is not just a pure entropy contribution.

Probing strongly coupled anisotropic plasmas from higher curvature gravity
TL;DR: In this article, a black brane solution displaying spatial anisotropy as the gravity dual of a strongly coupled anisotropic plasma was used to compute several observables relevant to the study of the plasma, namely, the drag force, the jet quenching parameter, the quarkonium potential, and the thermal photon production.

Gravitational waves of a first-order QCD phase transition at finite coupling from holography
TL;DR: In this paper, a holographic study of coupling dependent gravitational waves produced by the cosmic first-order QCD phase transition at finite baryochemical potential is presented. And the authors also consider a supercooling scenario during the Gauss-Bonnet phase transition and show that the gravitational waves generated during this period can be detected by pulsar timing array experiments.

The Large N limit of superconformal field theories and supergravity
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the large-N limits of certain conformal field theories in various dimensions include in their Hilbert space a sector describing supergravityon the product of anti-de Sitter spacetimes, spheres, and other compact manifolds.
