Study of phases in a holographic QCD model

Witten–Sakai–Sugimoto model is used to study Yang–Mills theory with flavors and large number of colors at finite temperature and in the presence of chemical potential for baryon number and isospin. Sources for U ( 1 ) B and U ( 1 ) 3 gauge fields on the flavor 8-branes are D4-branes wrapped on S 4 p...

Summary:Witten–Sakai–Sugimoto model is used to study Yang–Mills theory with flavors and large number of colors at finite temperature and in the presence of chemical potential for baryon number and isospin. Sources for U ( 1 ) B and U ( 1 ) 3 gauge fields on the flavor 8-branes are D4-branes wrapped on S 4 part of the background. Here, gauge symmetry on the flavor branes has been decomposed as U ( 2 ) ≡ U ( 1 ) B × S U ( 2 ) and U ( 1 ) 3 is within S U ( 2 ) and generated by the diagonal generator. We show various brane configurations, along with the phases in the boundary theory they correspond to, and explore the possibility of phase transition between various pairs of phases.
