We study the transport properties of strongly interacting matter in the context of ultrarelativistic heavy ion collision experiments. We calculate the transport coefficients viz. shear viscosity ($eta$) and electrical conductivity ($sigma_{rm{el}}$) of the quark-gluon plasma phase in the presence of momentum anisotropy arising from different expansion rates of the medium in longitudinal and transverse direction. We solve the relativistic Boltzmann kinetic equation in relaxation time approximation to calculate the shear viscosity and electrical conductivity. The calculations are performed within the quasiparticle model to estimate these transport coefficients and discuss the connection between them. We also compare the electrical conductivity results calculated from the quasiparticle model with the ideal case. We compare our results with the corresponding results obtained in the different lattice as well as model calculations.

The fireball concept of Rolf Hagedorn, developed in the 1960s, is an alternative description of hadronic matter. Using a recently derived mass spectrum, we use the transport model GiBUU to calculate the shear viscosity of a gas of such Hagedorn states, applying the Green-Kubo method to Monte-Carlo calculations. Since the entropy density is rising ad infinitum near $T_H$, this leads to a very low shear viscosity to entropy density ratio near $T_H$. Further, by comparing our results with analytic expressions, we find a nice extrapolation behavior, indicating that a gas of Hagedorn states comes close or even below the boundary $1/4pi$ from AdS-CFT.
We discuss thw relations between the elastic and inelastic cross-sections valid for the shadow and reflective modes of the elastic scattering. Considerations are based on the unitarity arguments. It is shown that the redistribution of the total interaction probability between the elastic and inelastic interactions can lead to increasing ratio of $sigma_{el}(s)/sigma_{tot}(s)$ at the LHC energies in presence of the reflective scattering mode. The form of the inelastic overlap function becomes peripheral due to the negative feedback. In the absorptive scattering mode, the mechanism of this increase is a different one since the impact parameter dependence of the inelastic interactions probability is central in this case. A short notice is also given on the slope parameter and the leading contributions to its energy dependence in the both modes.
We have explored the shear viscosity and electrical conductivity calculations for bosonic and fermionic medium, which goes from without to with magnetic field picture and then their simplified massless expressions. In presence of magnetic field, 5 independent velocity gradient tensors can be designed, so their corresponding proportional coefficients, connected with the viscous stress tensor provide us 5 shear viscosity coefficients. In existing litterateurs, two sets of tensors are available. Starting from them, present work has obtained two sets of expressions for 5 shear viscosity coefficients, which can be ultimately classified into three basic components: parallel, perpendicular and Hall components as one get same for electrical conductivity at finite magnetic field. Our calculations are based on kinetic theory approach in relaxation time approximation. Repeating same mathematical steps for finite magnetic field picture, which traditionally practiced for without field case, we have obtained 2 sets of 5 shear viscosity components, whose final expressions are in well agreements with earlier references, although a difference in methodology or steps can be clearly noticed. Realizing the massless results of viscosity and conductivity for Maxwell-Boltzmann, Fermi-Dirac and Bose-Einstein distribution function, we have applied them for massless quark gluon plasma and hadronic matter phases, which can provide us a rough order of strength, within which actual results will vary during quark-hadron phase transition. Present work also indicates that magnetic field might have some role for building perfect fluid nature in RHIC or LHC matter. The lower bound expectation of shear viscosity to entropy density ratio is also discussed.
We calculate two transport coefficients -- the shear viscosity over entropy ratio $eta/s$ and the ratio of the electric conductivity to the temperature $sigma_0/T$ -- of strongly interacting quark matter within the extended $N_f=3$ Polyakov Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (PNJL) model along the crossover transition line for moderate values of baryon chemical potential $0 leq mu_B leq 0.9$ GeV as well as in the vicinity of the critical endpoint (CEP) and at large baryon chemical potential $mu_B=1.2$ GeV, where the first-order phase transition takes place. The evaluation of the transport coefficients is performed on the basis of the effective Boltzmann equation in the relaxation time approximation. We employ two different methods for the calculation of the quark relaxation times: i) using the averaged transition rate defined via thermal averaged quark-quark and quark-antiquark PNJL cross sections and ii) using the weighted thermal averaged quark-quark and quark-antiquark PNJL cross sections. The $eta/s$ and $sigma_0/T$ transport coefficients have a similar temperature and chemical potential behavior when approaching the chiral phase transition for the both methods for the quark relaxation time, however, the differences grow with increasing temperature. We demonstrate the effect of the first-order phase transition and of the CEP on the transport coefficients in the deconfined QCD medium.
Effect of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) interaction in quark-gluon plasma on electrical conductivity is studied, where lattice quantum chromodynamics (LQCD) results are mapped through quark and gluon degeneracy.
