Abstract:We study the production of gravitational waves by a thermalized plasma of N =4 Supersymmetric Yang Mills matter. We focus on the large number of colors limit, N c → ∞, and compute the spectrum of gravitational waves both for infinitely large and infinitesimally small values of the t'Hoft coupling constant λ. In the λ → ∞ limit we employ the gauge/gravity duality to compute the emission rate via the analysis of Energy-Momentum tensor thermal correlators. In the λ → 0 limit we employ state-of-the-art perturbativ… Show more
