Abstract

I describe the parton picture at strong coupling emerging from the gauge/gravity duality, with emphasis on the universality of the phenomenon of parton saturation. I discuss several consequences of this picture for the phenomenology of a strongly coupled quark–gluon plasma, which are potentially relevant for heavy ion collisions at RHIC and LHC.
