Shock waves in fluids (Landau-Lifshitz)
When an object moves supersonically in a fluid generically creates shock waves. These shocks are perturbations that propagate supersonically and (usually) seen as discontinuities in the hydrodynamic quantities.

There is recent evidence for the existence of a Mach cone produced by a quark propagating inside the QGP.

Description of shock waves
Impose continuity in the energy and momentum across the shock (also charge, particle number, etc.).
Two solutions:
They create entropy even in ideal hydrodynamics.

The discontinuity in the shock wave means that thehydrodynamic description breaks down at the shock.The fields change across distances smaller than the hydrodynamic scale (~ mean free path). A microscopic description can resolve the singularity (e.g. Boltzmann equation).
The AdS/CFT correspondence relates the dynamics ofcertain fluids with the dynamics of black holes. Hydrodynamics breaks down at a scale 1/T but gravitydoes not. For that reason, gravity should resolve the discontinuity and shock waves should propagateon black holes.

Hydrodynamics of the NNNN =4 conformal plasma
Low energy excitations of a plasma are given by temperature variations and displacements characterized by T and uµ (4 variables). Tµν has nine indep.comp.We define T and uµ through:
There are 3 more eigenvectors u1,u2, u3 (3 variables) and 3 eigenvalues λ1, λ2, λ3 (2 variables). (4+3+2=9)
Hydrodynamics determines these 5 variables in termsof uµ and T. Then we can use 4 equations:

Hydrodynamics from gravity (Battacharyya, Hubeny, Minwalla, Rangamani)
For any conserved Tµν we can find a dual metric gµν (asymptotically AdS + δgµν Tµν). However thosemetrics are generically singular. For long wavelengths(along the boundary direction) we can systematically find the Tµν that gives rise to a non-singular metric.

Boundary conditions:
Infalling boundary conditions at the horizon are analytically continued to give the correct b.c. breaking the time reversal symmetry leading to the correct shock wave. Equivalently we ask regularity in Eddington-Filkenstein coordinates.

More recent work, preliminary results:
The scaling of q for probes the ultraviolet of the theory and should be interesting to study in other cases.Even in the conformal case the exponent depends on the dimension as q ~ γ2/d
For a stationary solution the surface gravity should be constant? This would mean the temperature is uniform. However the very definition of surface gravityrequires the existence of a Killing vector becoming light-like at the horizon. We do not seem to have any.
Oscillations of shock waves generate sound. We havethe same here. Analogous to super-radiance?

Conclusions
We performed a systematic study of how gravity resolves shocks in AdS/CFT for the N =4 conformal plasma.
For weak shocks we solve for the hydrodynamic shockand reconstructed the metric.
For strong shocks we computed the exponential tailsand found an interesting scaling for large γ factor:i q ~ γ1/2
Shock waves are important probes of the microscopicdescription of the theory and should be carefully studied.
