Thermodynamics of the Isospectral family of holographic vector mesons
Miguel Angel Martin Contreras, Saulo Diles, Alfredo Vega
We study the thermal behavior of the meson using the isospectral family of the softwall AdS/QCD model. By computing spectral functions at finite temperature and chemical potent…
Holographic quark masses and radiative decays of heavy vector mesons
Saulo Diles, Miguel Angel Martin Contreras, Alfredo Vega
Holographic models of QCD provide the spectrum of heavy vector meson masses and electromagnetic decay constants through bulk computations of the current-current correlation functio…
On the spectrum of open strings in the Hard-Wall model of AdS/QCD: the role of
Saulo Diles
We revisit the problem of a classical open string representing a meson in the hard-wall geometry and consider the compact space. The existence of a confining region leads to…
Isospectrality and configurational entropy as testing tools for bottom-up AdS/QCD
Miguel Angel Martin Contreras, Alfredo Vega, Saulo Diles
This work discusses the connection between isospectrality and configurational entropy in holographic bottom-up models. We analyze the effect of monoparametric isospectral transform…
A holographic bottom-up description of light nuclide spectroscopy and stability
Miguel Angel Martin Contreras, Saulo Diles, Alfredo Vega
This work explores a holographic proposal to describe light nuclide spectroscopy by considering extensions to the well-known bottom-up AdS/QCD proposals, the hardwall and softwall…
Holographic Confinement of the Solitary Quark
Saulo Diles, Miguel Angel Martín Contreras, Alfredo Vega
Single quarks moving in the vacuum of confining gauge theories are stopped by a drag force. The holographic description relates the confining scale in the bulk geometry with a rang…
Diversity of self-propulsion speeds reduces motility-induced clustering in confined active matter
Pablo de Castro, Francisco M. Rocha, Saulo Diles +2
Self-propelled swimmers such as bacteria agglomerate into clusters as a result of their persistent motion. In 1D, those clusters do not coalesce macroscopically and the stationary…
Heavy quarkonia spectroscopy at zero and finite temperature in bottom-up AdS/QCD
Miguel Angel Martin Contreras, Saulo Diles, Alfredo Vega
S-wave states of charmonium and bottomonium are described using bottom-up AdS/QCD. We propose a holographic model that unifies the description of masses and decay constants, leadin…
Two theorems for the gradient expansion of relativistic hydrodynamics
Saulo Diles
This letter is dedicated to providing proof of two statements concerning the gradient expansion of relativistic hydrodynamics. The first statement is that \textit{the ordering of t…
Active mixtures in a narrow channel: Motility diversity changes cluster sizes
Pablo de Castro, Saulo Diles, Rodrigo Soto +1
The persistent motion of bacteria produces clusters with a stationary cluster size distribution (CSD). Here we develop a minimal model for bacteria in a narrow channel to assess th…
Drag Force in the Vacuum of Confining Gauge Theories
Saulo Diles, Miguel Angel Martin Contreras, Alfredo Vega
The complete absence of isolated quarks reaching particle detectors after high energy collisions suggests that some physical mechanism generates resistance to their propagation in…
Third-order relativistic hydrodynamics: dispersion relations and transport coefficients of a dual plasma
Saulo M. Diles, Luis A. H. Mamani, Alex S. Miranda +1
Hydrodynamics is nowadays understood as an effective field theory that describes the dynamics of the long-wavelength and slow-time fluctuations of an underlying microscopic theory.…
Probing AdS/QCD backgrounds with semi-classical strings
Saulo Diles
New AdS/QCD backgrounds have been proposed to describe the spectrum of heavy vector mesons via the implementation of additional energy scales on the bulk geometry of the soft wall…
The role of Weyl symmetry in hydrodynamics
Saulo Diles
This article is dedicated to the analysis of Weyl symmetry in the context of relativistic hydrodynamics. Here is discussed how this symmetry is properly implemented using the presc…
Holographic Picture of Heavy Vector Meson Melting
Nelson R. F. Braga, M. A. Martin Contreras, Saulo Diles
The fraction of heavy vector mesons produced in a heavy ion collision, as compared to a proton proton collision, serves as an important indication of the formation of a thermal med…
Holographic model for heavy vector meson masses
Nelson R. F. Braga, M. A. Martin Contreras, Saulo Diles
The experimentally observed spectra of heavy vector meson radial excitations show a dependence on two different energy parameters. One is associated with the quark mass and the oth…
Decay constants in soft wall AdS/QCD revisited
Nelson R. F. Braga, M. A. Martin Contreras, Saulo Diles
Phenomenological AdS/QCD models, like hard wall and soft wall, provide hadronic mass spectra in reasonable consistency with experimental and (or) lattice results. These simple mode…
Entropy from Scaling Symmetry Breaking
Neymar Cavalcante, Saulo Diles, Kumar S. Gupta +1
The scaling symmetry in conformal quantum mechanics (CQM) can be broken due to the boundary conditions that follow from the requirement of a unitary time evolution of the Hamiltoni…
