Extended soft wall model with background related to features of QCD thermodynamics

Abstract

The soft wall model is extended to accommodate at the same time (i) approximately linear $\rho$ meson Regge trajectories at zero temperature $T$, (ii) various options for the thermodynamics with reference to QCD (cross over or second-order transition or first-order transition at $T_c$), and (iii) the appearance of vector meson states at $T\le T_c$. While the vector meson masses display some modest model dependence very near to $T_c$, they stay below $T_c$ to good accuracy independent of the temperature, that is nearly as at $T=0$, thus being very consistent with the thermo-statistical models widely employed in analyses of the hadron yields in relativistic heavy-ion collisions in a region where baryon densitiy effects can be neglected and the vacuum hadron masses are used.
