摘要: We investigate far from equilibrium energy transport in strongly coupled quantum critical systems. Combining results gauge-gravity duality, relativistic hydrodynamics, and field theory, we argue that long-time occurs via a universal steady-state for any spatial dimensionality. This is described by boosted thermal state. determine the properties of this emergent steady state, including average flow its fluctuations.
