Prediction of a Photon Peak in Heavy Ion Collisions

Jorge Casalderrey-Solana, David Mateos

We show that if a flavour-less vector meson remains bound after deconfinement, and if its limiting velocity in the quark-gluon plasma is subluminal, then this meson produces a dist…

Bright branes for strongly coupled plasmas

David Mateos, Leonardo Patino

We use holographic techniques to study photon production in a class of finite temperature, strongly coupled, large-Nc SU(Nc) quark-gluon plasmas with Nf << Nc quark flavours. Our r…

String Theory and Quantum Chromodynamics

David Mateos

I review recent progress on the connection between string theory and quantum chromodynamics in the context of the gauge/gravity duality. Emphasis is placed on conciseness and conce…

Holographic Viscosity of Fundamental Matter

David Mateos, Robert C. Myers, Rowan M. Thomson

A holographic dual of a finite-temperature SU(N_c) gauge theory with a small number of flavours N_f << N_c typically contains D-branes in a black hole background. By considering th…

Holographic Phase Transitions with Fundamental Matter

David Mateos, Robert C. Myers, Rowan M. Thomson

The holographic dual of a finite-temperature gauge theory with a small number of flavours typically contains D-brane probes in a black hole background. At low temperature the brane…

Oscillator Level for Black Holes and Black Rings

Roberto Emparan, David Mateos

Microscopic calculations of the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of supersymmetric black holes in string theory are typically based on the application to a dual 2D CFT of Cardy's formula…
