Description
Nonthermal fixed points are far from equilibrium weak-coupling phenomena in which the distribution function of particles exhibit self-similarity in time in the absence of spatial dependence. In 2504.18754 with Berges, Denicol and Preis we proposed that introducing spatial gradients leads to the emergence of a novel form of hydrodynamics, defined intrinsically far from equilibrium. I will discuss how these new kinds of fluids fit into what we know about near-equilibrium fluid mechanics at weak and strong coupling and ideas about hydrodynamic attractors.
