Second order transport coefficients of nonconformal fluids from compactified Dp-branes

Abstract

Abstract All the 7 dynamical second order transport coefficients of the nonconformal fluids that correspond to Dp-branes with one or more world-volume directions compactified are derived via fluid/gravity correspondence. The conditions considered in this paper include D4-brane with 1, 2 or 3 compact directions, D3-brane with 1 or 2 compact directions, as well as D2-brane with 1 direction compactified. The derived second order transport coefficients satisfy the Haack-Yarom, Romatschke and Kleinert-Probst relations.
