Description

In this talk, I will briefly review recent progress on the fluid nature and the viscosity of the quark gluon plasma. The related topics include: 1) extracting the QGP shear viscosity from the flow data at RHIC and the LHC 2) initial state fluctuations, final state correlations and event-by-event hydrodynamics, 3) flow and hydrodynamics in p+Pb collisions at \sqrt{s_{NN}}=5.02 TeV.
