Description
The effect of soft gluon bremsstrahlung off the charm quark
on different transport coefficients like
drag, transverse and longitudinal diffusion of charm
has been observed while it is propagating inside Quark Gluon Plasma.
The elastic collision of charm with the medium particles and
the gluon radiation are seen to contribute in comparable
magnitudes while evaluating of the transport coefficients.
However, it is noticed that the ultimate shape of the charm
quark distribution function after it has come to equilibrium
remains more or less unaffected by the radiation of charm.
We also observe that the shear viscosity to entropy ratio
of the quark gluon plasma (QGP) is closer to the experimentally
extracted value when the gluon radiation by the charm quark is included
