Understand

We examine the structure of the shear viscosity to entropy density ratio eta/s in holographic theories of gravity coupled to a scalar field, in the presence of higher derivative corrections.

Thanks to a non-trivial scalar field profile, eta/s in this setup generically runs as a function of temperature.
In particular, its temperature behavior is dictated by the shape of the scalar potential and of the scalar couplings to the higher derivative terms.
We consider a number of dilatonic setups, but focus mostly on phenomenological models that are QCD-like.
