The Tachyon Chern-Simons action with a generic tachyon field, and baryons in V-QCD
Jean-Loup Raymond, Matti Järvinen, Elias Kiritsis +2
Consistency with global flavor anomalies requires the presence of Chern-Simons terms in holographic models of QCD. Such terms are analyzed in a setup arising in the holographic V-Q…
Flavour current correlators and the non-Abelian hydrodynamic approximation: the charged sector
Thomas Apostolidis, Matti Järvinen, Elias Kiritsis +3
Flavor-current correlators are studied in strongly-coupled dense (holographic) matter, at finite quark chemical potential and finite isospin asymmetry. The non-Abelian hydro…
Higher derivative holography and temperature dependence of QGP viscosities
Thomas Apostolidis, Umut Gürsoy, Edwan Préau
Recent Bayesian analyses of heavy ion collision data have established a non-trivial temperature dependence of the shear and bulk viscosity per entropy. Motivated by this, we consid…
Revisiting color superconductors in bottom-up holography
Edwan Préau
We revisit the problem of constructing a color superconducting phase in bottom-up holography. We introduce a model that describes the five-dimensional dynamics of a scalar field du…
