"Entanglement Entropy in Shock Wave Collisions";

Kurzfassung englisch:
Entanglement entropy, a measure for entanglement in quantum systems, attracts a lot of attention in seemingly unrelated branches of physics like quantum information, condensed matter and conformal field theories.
While computing entanglement entropy in quantum field theories turns out to be notoriously hard, the holographic principle maps the problem to the much easier task of finding minimal (hyper)surfaces in a higher dimensional gravity theory.
In this talk I will present our recent numerical relativity computations of entanglement entropy using a system of colliding gravitational shock waves as holographic toy model for the early stage of heavy ion collisions.
