On the existence of a holographic description of the LHC quark–gluon plasmas

Peripheral collisions of heavy ions can give rise to extremely intense magnetic fields. It has been suggested that these fields might invalidate the holographic description of the corresponding quark–gluon plasmas, assuming that these can be modelled by strongly coupled field theories. In the case o...
