Excited Mesons and Quantization of String Endpoints
E. Schreiber
We argue that those field theories containing mesons that are dual to weakly curved string backgrounds are non-generic. The spectrum of highly excited mesons in confining field the…
Five-Brane Thermodynamics from the Matrix Model
K. Furuuchi, E. Schreiber, G. W. Semenoff
A certain sector of the matrix model for M-theory on a plane wave background has recently been shown to produce the transverse five-brane. We consider this theory at finite tempera…
Quantum fluctuations of Wilson loops from string models
Y. Kinar, E. Schreiber, J. Sonnenschein +1
We discuss the impact of quadratic quantum fluctuations on the Wilson loop extracted from classical string theory. We show that a large class of models, which includes the near hor…
Potential from Strings in Curved Spacetime - Classical Results
Y. Kinar, E. Schreiber, J. Sonnenschein
We compute the leading behaviour of the quark anti-quark potential from a generalized Nambu-Goto action associated with a curved space-time having an "extra dimension". The extra d…
Precision "Measurements" of the Potential in MQCD
Y. Kinar, E. Schreiber, J. Sonnenschein
We compute the M theory corrections to the confining linear potential between a quark and an anti-quark in N=1 Super Yang-Mills theory. We find a constant term, and a term exponent…
