Holographic quark masses and radiative decays of heavy vector mesons

Abstract

Holographic models of QCD provide the spectrum of heavy vector meson masses and electromagnetic decay constants through bulk computations of the current-current correlation function. Conversely, the phenomenology of heavy vector mesons is articulated by the constituent heavy quark model utilizing a non-relativistic approximation. By applying the Segre formula from non-relativistic quantum mechanics, we derive new observables from holography: the constituent quark mass, the three-photon decay width, the effective fine structure constant of the strong interaction, and the mixed one-photon and two-gluon decay width. We also derive the three-gluon decay width, the three-photon decay width, and the mixed one-photon and two-gluon decay width for the radially excited states of heavy quarkonia and compare them with available experimental data. The present results reveal a new paradigm of meson spectroscopy in AdS/QCD.
