Description
Heavy-ion collision experiments manage to probe the quark-gluon plasma of QCD. The plasma created is strongly coupled and is difficult to analyze using conventional means. In this talk, we shall use the AdS/CFT correspondence to study properties of particles moving through a quark-gluon plasma. Such probe particles provide a model for understanding several unanswered puzzles exhibited by the experiment.
