Toward the AdS/CFT dual of the "Little Bang"
  This (rather subjective) review sums up few years of work devoted to explain various aspects of high energy heavy ion collisions using the AdS/CFT correspondence. The central issue of is is formation of the trapped surface (black hole) phenomenon, seen by a distant observer as the entropy production. We end up discussing an issue of classical gravitational radiation by an ultrarelativistic falling body and the so called breaking self-force related to it.
