Screening effects on meson masses from holography
Francesco Bigazzi, Aldo L. Cotrone, Angel Paredes +1
We study the spectra of scalar and vector mesons in four dimensional strongly coupled SQCD-like theories in the Veneziano limit. The gauge theories describe the low energy dynamics…
The Klebanov-Strassler model with massive dynamical flavors
Francesco Bigazzi, Aldo L. Cotrone, Angel Paredes +1
We present a fully backreacted D3-D7 supergravity solution dual to the Klebanov-Strassler cascading gauge theory coupled to a large number of massive dynamical flavors in the Venez…
Temperature versus acceleration: the Unruh effect for holographic models
Angel Paredes, Kasper Peeters, Marija Zamaklar
We analyse the effect of velocity and acceleration on the temperature felt by particles and strings in backgrounds relevant in holographic models. First, we compare accelerated str…
Phase transitions in large N(c) heavy quark potentials
F. Bigazzi, A. L. Cotrone, A. Paredes
We describe phase transitions in the heavy quark potential in planar gauge theories having wrapped D5-brane string duals. A new phase transition, previously unnoticed in these mode…
Klebanov-Witten theory with massive dynamical flavors
Francesco Bigazzi, Aldo L. Cotrone, Angel Paredes
We consider the addition of a large number of massive dynamical flavors to the Klebanov-Witten theory, the quiver gauge theory describing the low energy dynamics of Nc D3-branes at…
Heavy quark potential with dynamical flavors: a first order transition
Francesco Bigazzi, Aldo L. Cotrone, Carlos Nunez +1
We study the static potential between external quark-antiquark pairs in a strongly coupled gauge theory with a large number of colors and massive dynamical flavors, using a dual st…
