Abstract

The effects of charge and finite ’t Hooft coupling correction on drag force and jet quenching parameter are investigated. To study charge effect and finite ’t Hooft coupling correction, we consider Maxwell charge and Gauss–Bonnet terms, respectively. The background is Reissner–Nordström–AdS black brane solution in Gauss–Bonnet gravity. It is shown that these corrections affect drag force and jet quenching parameter. We find an analytic solution of drag force in this background which depends on Gauss–Bonnet coupling and charge. We set Gauss–Bonnet coupling to be zero and find drag force in the case of Reissner–Nordström–AdS background.
