Bubble dynamics in a QCD-like phase diagram
Yago Bea, Mauro Giliberti, David Mateos +3
A line of first-order phase transitions is conjectured in the phase diagram of Quantum Chromodynamics at non-zero baryon density. If this is the case, numerical simulations of neut…
Hydrodynamics of Relativistic Superheated Bubbles
Yago Bea, Jorge Casalderrey-Solana, David Mateos +1
Relativistic, charged, superheated bubbles may play an important role in neutron star mergers if first-order phase transitions are present in the phase diagram of Quantum Chromodyn…
Gravitational Duals from Equations of State
Yago Bea, Raul Jimenez, David Mateos +4
Holography relates gravitational theories in five dimensions to four-dimensional quantum field theories in flat space. Under this map, the equation of state of the field theory is…
Field redefinitions and evolutions in relativistic Navier-Stokes
Yago Bea, Pau Figueras
In recent years the equations of relativistic first-order viscous hydrodynamics, that is, the relativistic version of Navier-Stokes, have been shown to be well posed and causal und…
Holographic Bubbles with Jecco: Expanding, Collapsing and Critical
Yago Bea, Jorge Casalderrey-Solana, Thanasis Giannakopoulos +4
Cosmological phase transitions can proceed via the nucleation of bubbles that subsequently expand and collide. The resulting gravitational wave spectrum depends crucially on the pr…
Evolutions in first-order viscous hydrodynamics
Hans Bantilan, Yago Bea, Pau Figueras
Motivated by the physics of the quark-gluon plasma created in heavy-ion collision experiments, we use holography to study the regime of applicability of various theories of relativ…
Spinodal Gravitational Waves
Yago Bea, Jorge Casalderrey-Solana, Thanasis Giannakopoulos +5
We uncover a new gravitational-wave production mechanism in cosmological, first-order, thermal phase transitions. These are usually assumed to proceed via the nucleation of bubbles…
Domain Collisions
Yago Bea, Jorge Casalderrey-Solana, Thanasis Giannakopoulos +3
We use holography to study collisions of phase domains formed in a four-dimensional, strongly-coupled gauge theory with a first-order, thermal phase transition. We find three quali…
Bubble Wall Velocity from Holography
Yago Bea, Jorge Casalderrey-Solana, Thanasis Giannakopoulos +3
Cosmological phase transitions proceed via the nucleation of bubbles that subsequently expand and collide. The resulting gravitational wave spectrum depends crucially on the bubble…
Crossing a large- phase transition at finite volume
Yago Bea, Oscar J. C. Dias, Thanasis Giannakopoulos +4
The existence of phase-separated states is an essential feature of infinite-volume systems with a thermal, first-order phase transition. At energies between those at which the phas…
Dynamics of Phase Separation from Holography
Maximilian Attems, Yago Bea, Jorge Casalderrey-Solana +2
We use holography to develop a physical picture of the real-time evolution of the spinodal instability of a four-dimensional, strongly-coupled gauge theory with a first-order, ther…
Holographic Collisions across a Phase Transition
Maximilian Attems, Yago Bea, Jorge Casalderrey-Solana +3
We use holography to analyse relativistic collisions in a one-parameter family of strongly coupled gauge theories with thermal phase transitions. For a critical value of the parame…
Heating up Exotic RG Flows with Holography
Yago Bea, David Mateos
We use holography to study finite-temperature deformations of RG flows that have exotic properties from an RG viewpoint. The holographic model consists of five-dimensional gravity…
Non-commutative massive unquenched ABJM
Yago Bea, Niko Jokela, Arttu Pönni +1
In this paper we study non-commutative massive unquenched Chern-Simons matter theory using its gravity dual. We construct this novel background by applying a TsT-transformation on…
Phase Transitions, Inhomogeneous Horizons and Second-Order Hydrodynamics
Maximilian Attems, Yago Bea, Jorge Casalderrey-Solana +3
We use holography to study the spinodal instability of a four-dimensional, strongly-coupled gauge theory with a first-order thermal phase transition. We place the theory on a cylin…
Holographic duality and applications
Yago Bea
In this thesis we review some results on the generalization of the gauge/gravity duality to new cases by using T-duality and by including fundamental matter, finding applications t…
Quantum phase transitions with dynamical flavors
Yago Bea, Niko Jokela, Alfonso V. Ramallo
We study the properties of a D6-brane probe in the ABJM background with smeared massless dynamical quarks in the Veneziano limit. Working at zero temperature and non-vanishing char…
Compactifications of the Klebanov-Witten CFT and new backgrounds
Yago Bea, Jose D. Edelstein, Georgios Itsios +4
In this paper we find various new backgrounds in Type IIB, IIA and M-theory with an -factor. The solutions are smooth and preserve small amounts of SUSY. These new backgroun…
Flux and Hall states in ABJM with dynamical flavors
Yago Bea, Niko Jokela, Matthew Lippert +2
We study the physics of probe D6-branes with quantized internal worldvolume flux in the ABJM background with unquenched massless flavors. This flux breaks parity in the (2+1)-dimen…
Unquenched massive flavors and flows in Chern-Simons matter theories
Yago Bea, Eduardo Conde, Niko Jokela +1
We construct a holographic dual to the three-dimensional ABJM Chern-Simons matter theory with unquenched massive flavors. The flavor degrees of freedom are introduced by means of D…
