Description

"We numerically solve the collision of shock-waves in a holographic model with a non-trivial scalar field. We adjust the scalar field potential such that the bulk space-time coincides with AdS in the infrared and in the ultraviolet with different AdS radius. This introduces a non-trivial running of the dual gauge theory coupling constant which we choose at our convenience. We study the effect of this non-conformality on the the hydrodynamization of the system and focus on the effect of the non-trivial equation of state and the effect of bulk viscosity."
