Viscous Asymptotically Flat Reissner-Nordstr\"om Black Branes

Understand

We study electrically charged asymptotically flat black brane solutions whose world-volume fields are slowly varying with the coordinates.

• Using familiar techniques, we compute the transport coefficients of the fluid dynamic derivative expansion to first order.
• We show how the shear and bulk viscosities are modified in the presence of electric charge and we compute the charge diffusion constant which is not present for the neutral black p-brane.
• We compute the first order dispersion relations of the effective fluid.
