Description
One of the most important result obtained at RHIC experiment is the measurement of the elliptic flow of final
particles. The value of this flow can be explained within hydrodynamic
approach, if it is assumed that QGP is nearly perfect fluid. Our paper is devoted to calculation of
shear viscosity of QGP at different temperatures within lattice simulation of QCD. The results of the
calculation are in a good agreement with the experiment.
Summary
Measurements of the $< T_{12} T_{12} >$ correlator of lattice SU(3)-gluodynamics were performed in a range of temperatures in order to extract data about $\eta / s$ viscosity-to-entropy ratio.
