Thermodynamics of Plasmaballs and Plasmarings in 3+1 Dimensions

Understand

We study localized plasma configurations in 3+1 dimensional massive field theories obtained by Scherk-Schwarz compactification of 4+1 dimensional CFT to predict the thermodynamic properties of localized blackholes and blackrings in Scherk-Schwarz compactified $AdS_6$ using the AdS/CFT correspondence.

• We present an exact solution to the relativistic Navier-Stokes equation in the thin ring limit of the fluid configuration.
• We also perform a thorough numerical analysis to obtain the thermodynamic properties of the most general solution.
• Finally we compare our results with the recent proposal for the phase diagram of blackholes in six flat dimensions and find some similarities but other differences.
