The Interplay Between Electromagnetic Fields and Baryon Stopping in a Hydrodynamic Model for Charged Flow

Tuna Demircik, Dmitri E. Kharzeev, Krishna Rajagopal +1

Charge-dependent directed flow provides a sensitive probe of early electromagnetic fields and baryon stopping in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Recent STAR measurements show a…

Towards holographic color superconductivity in QCD

Jesús Cruz Rojas, Tuna Demircik, Christian Ecker +1

We extend the holographic V-QCD model by introducing a charged scalar field sector to represent the condensation of paired quark matter in the deconfined phase. By incorporating th…

Modulated instabilities and the AdS point in dense holographic matter

Jesús Cruz Rojas, Tuna Demircik, Matti Järvinen

We investigate fluctuations of hot and dense QCD plasma by using the gauge/gravity duality. To this end, we carry out a comprehensive classification and analysis of quasinormal mod…

Is holographic quark-gluon plasma homogeneous?

Tuna Demircik, Niko Jokela, Matti Jarvinen +1

We present evidence for a spatially modulated instability within the deconfined quark-gluon plasma phase of QCD. This evidence is based on robust predictions from generic holograph…

A Novel Method for Holographic Transport

Tuna Demircik, Domingo Gallegos, Umut Gürsoy +2

We introduce a novel and effective method to compute transport coefficients in strongly interacting plasma states in holographic QFTs. Our method is based on relating the IR limit…

Popcorn transitions and approach to conformality in homogeneous holographic nuclear matter

Jesús Cruz Rojas, Tuna Demircik, Matti Järvinen

We study cold and dense nuclear matter by using the gauge/gravity duality. To this end we use the Witten-Sakai-Sugimoto model and the V-QCD models with an approach where the nuclea…

Exploring the Phase Diagram of V-QCD with Neutron Star Merger Simulations

Tuna Demircik, Christian Ecker, Matti Järvinen +3

Determining the phase structure of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) and its Equation of State (EOS) at densities and temperatures realized inside neutron stars and their mergers is a l…

Quark formation and phenomenology in binary neutron-star mergers using V-QCD

Samuel Tootle, Christian Ecker, Konrad Topolski +3

Using full 3+1 dimensional general-relativistic hydrodynamic simulations of equal- and unequal-mass neutron-star binaries with properties that are consistent with those inferred fr…

Dense and Hot QCD at Strong Coupling

Tuna Demircik, Christian Ecker, Matti Järvinen

We present a novel framework for the equation of state of dense and hot Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), which focuses on the region of the phase diagram relevant for neutron star mer…

The effects of magnetic fields on magnetic dipole moments

Gyurin Kim, Tuna Demircik, Deog Ki Hong +1

We calculate the effect of magnetic fields on the magnetic dipole moment of leptons up to the quadratic order in the magnetic field, including the QCD contributions. Since the lead…
