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…

Subtleties of non-Abelian D-brane actions and their effect on holographic heavy-light meson spectra

Carlos Hoyos, Niko Jokela, Andrea Olzi

We revisit the holographic description of heavy light mesons in the D3-D7 system at zero temperature, analyzing the dynamics of the coupled probe D7 branes through the non-Abelian…

Holographic Baryons as Quantum Hall Droplets

Francesco Bigazzi, Aldo Lorenzo Cotrone, Andrea Olzi +1

We provide a first-principle construction of baryons as quantum Hall droplets in single-flavor holographic QCD. The baryons are described as charged D6-branes with a circular bound…

Cosmic Topological Defects from Holography

Francesco Bigazzi, Aldo L. Cotrone, Andrea Olzi

This work investigates cosmic topological defects in gauge theories, focusing on models with an gauge group coupled with a single flavor, explored through a holographic fra…

Weak rates in strongly coupled cold quark matter

Carlos Hoyos, Andrea Olzi, David Rodriguez-Fernandez

The rates of flavor-changing weak processes are crucial in determining the conditions of beta equilibrium in neutron stars and mergers, influencing the damping of oscillations, the…
