Properties of Stable Massive Quark Stars in Holography

Kazem Bitaghsir Fadafan, Jesús Cruz Rojas, Jonas Mager

We study a holographic D3/D7 system, whose dilaton profile has been phenomenologically adjusted in the infrared. The model is used to describe a deconfined yet massive quark phase…

Holographic light dilaton at the conformal edge

Jesús Cruz Rojas, Deog Ki Hong, Sang Hui Im +1

We study a simple holographic model for gauge theories near the conformal edge to show that the dilaton can be parametrically lighter than any other composite states. The masses of…

Holographic Colour Superconductors at Finite Coupling with NJL Interactions

Kazem Bitaghsir Fadafan, Jesús Cruz Rojas

We study a bottom-up holographic description of the QCD colour superconducting phase in the presence of higher derivative corrections. We expand this holographic model in the conte…

Holographic quark matter with colour superconductivity and a stiff equation of state for compact stars

Kazem Bitaghsir Fadafan, Jesus Cruz Rojas, Nick Evans

We present a holographic model of QCD with a first order chiral restoration phase transition with chemical potential, mu. The first order behaviour follows from allowing a disconti…

Deconfined, Massive Quark Phase at High Density and Compact Stars: A Holographic Study

Kazem Bitaghsir Fadafan, Jesus Cruz Rojas, Nick Evans

In Hoyos et al. (arXiv:1603.02943) a holographic D3/D7 system was used to describe a deconfined yet massive quark phase of QCD at finite density, concluding that the equation of st…

A Holographic Description of Colour Superconductivity

Kazem Bitaghsir Fadafan, Jesus Cruz Rojas, Nick Evans

The difficulty of describing the gauge dependent bi-quark condensate in the QCD colour superconducting phase has made it hard to construct a holographic dual of the state. To side…
