AdS/CFT predictions for azimuthal and momentum correlations of bb¯ pairs in heavy ion collisions

The strong coupling momentum correlations we compute account for initial correlations and reveal that the particle pairs suppressed from initially high momenta to the low momentum domain do not suffice to explain the stark difference to the weak coupling results in momentum correlations for 1-4GeV. From this, we conclude that bb¯ pairs are more likely to stay correlated in momentum when propagating through a strongly coupled plasma than a weakly coupled one.
