The measurements of the anisotropic flow of single particles and particle pairs have provided some of the most compelling evidence for the creation of a strongly interacting quark-gluon plasma (sQGP) in relativistic heavy ion collisions, first at RHIC, and more recently at the LHC. Using PbPb collision data taken in the 2010 and 2011 heavy ion runs at the LHC, the CMS experiment has...

Hadron correlations are important tools used to study the properties
of the medium produced in relativistic heavy ion collisions. We
present detailed measurements of flow harmonics $v_{2}$-$v_{6}$ via
di-hadron correlations in broad $p_{T}$, $\Delta\eta$ and centrality
ranges using the 2010 Pb+Pb data from ATLAS. These measurements are
compared to the corresponding values obtained via...

I review the application of the AdS/CFT correspondence to heavy ion
collisions. The talk will first review and critique available
holographic calculations of energy loss, with an emphasis on the
parametric similarities and differences between perturbation theory
and the strongly coupled theory. Then the talk will summarize the
results of current AdS/CFT motivated energy loss models and...
