Magnetic Phase Diagram of Dense Holographic Multiquarks in the Quark-gluon Plasma
We study phase diagram of the dense holographic gauge matter in the
Sakai-Sugimoto model in the presence of the magnetic field above the
deconfinement temperature. Even above the deconfinement, quarks could form
colour bound states through the remaining strong interaction if the density is
large. We demonstrate that in the presence of the magnetic field for a
sufficiently large baryon density, the multiquark-pion gradient
(MQ-) phase is more thermodynamically preferred than the
chiral-symmetric quark-gluon plasma. The phase diagrams between the holographic
multiquark and the chiral-symmetric quark-gluon plasma phase are obtained at
finite temperature and magnetic field. In the mixed MQ- phase,
the pion gradient induced by the external magnetic field is found to be a
linear response for small and moderate field strengths. Its population ratio
decreases as the density is raised and thus the multiquarks dominate the phase.
Temperature dependence of the baryon chemical potential, the free energy and
the linear pion gradient response of the multiquark phase are well approximated
by a simple analytic function inherited from
the metric of the holographic background.Comment: 20 pages, 7 figure
The Mixed Phase of Charged AdS Black holes
We study the mixed phase of charged AdS black hole and radiation when the
total energy is fixed below the threshold to produce a stable charged black
hole branch. The coexistence conditions for the charged AdS black hole and
radiation are derived for the generic case when radiation particles carry
charge. The phase diagram of the mixed phase is demonstrated for both fixed
potential and charge ensemble. In the dual gauge picture, they correspond to
the mixed phase of quark-gluon plasma~(QGP) and hadron gas in the fixed
chemical potential and density ensemble respectively. In the nuclei and heavy
ion collisions at intermediate energies, the mixed phase of exotic QGP and
hadron gas could be produced. The mixed phase will condensate and evaporate
into the hadron gas as the fireball expands.Comment: 31 pages, 12 figures, added section on the analysis for charged

Magnetized Domain Walls in the Deconfined Sakai-Sugimoto Model at Finite Baryon Density
The magnetized pure pion gradient () phase in the deconfined
Sakai-Sugimoto model is explored at zero and finite temperature. We found that
the temperature has very small effects on the phase. The thermodynamical
properties of the phase shows that the excitations behave like a scalar
solitonic free particles. By comparing the free energy of the pion gradient
phase to the competing multiquark-pion gradient (MQ-) phase,
it becomes apparent that the pure pion gradient is less thermodynamically
preferred than the MQ- phase. However, in the parameter space
where the baryonic chemical potential is smaller than the onset value of the
multiquark, the dominating magnetized nuclear matter is the pion gradient
phase.Comment: 20 pages, 9 figure
Comments on holographic star and the dual QGP
We study static AdS star in generic dimension. The dependence of the mass
limit to the bulk fermion mass is explored. In the bulk conformal limit, the
mass limit saturates at a value identical to the mass limit of a radiation star
or the AdS space filling with pure radiation. The temperature and entropy of
the degenerate AdS star in the bulk conformal limit is zero in contrast to the
radiation star. Holographically, the universal mass limit corresponds to the
upper limit of the deconfinement temperature in the dual gauge picture. The QGP
at this temperature is dual to the large black hole and the heat capacity is
positive. When the fermion mass increases, the mass limit falls into the range
of the small black holes. We found that even though the small black hole has
negative heat capacity, the AdS box allows possibilities that it remains in
thermal equilibrium with the radiation as long as the size of the black hole is
not smaller than a critical size. Consequently, the dual QGP with negative heat
capacity can be produced and remains stable thermodynamically at temperature
below a saturation temperature . The QGP with negative heat capacity
produced at higher temperature will still condensate completely into a gas of
confined hadron.Comment: 30 pages, 9 figures, to be published in JHE
Similarity between Kaluza-Klein and Open-string amplitudes in Diphoton Production
We calculate the tree-level open-string amplitudes for the scattering of four
massless particles with diphoton final states. These amplitudes are required to
reproduce those of standard model at the tree level in the low energy limit.
After low energy stringy corrections, we found that they have similar form to
the same processes induced by exchange of the Kaluza-Klein(KK) excitations of
graviton in ADD scenario. Using this similarity, we apply constraints on the KK
mass scale to the string scale . The results are consistent with
constraints from the 4-fermion scattering, about TeV.Comment: 10 pages, modified reference
TeV-Scale Stringy Signatures at the Electron-positron Collider
We investigate the TeV-scale stringy signals of the four-fermion scattering
at the electron-positron collider with the center of mass energy 500-1000 GeV.
The nature of the stringy couplings leads to distinguishable asymmetries
comparing to the other new physics models. Specifically, the stringy states in
the four-fermion scattering at the leading-order corrections are of spin-1 and
2 with the chiral couplings inherited from the gauge bosons identified as the
zeroth-mode string states. The angular left-right, forward-backward,
center-edge asymmetries and the corresponding polarized-beam asymmetries are
investigated. The low-energy stringy corrections are compared to the ones
induced by the Kaluza-Klein (KK) gravitons. The angular left-right asymmetry of
the scattering with the final states of u and d-type quarks, namely c and b,
shows significant deviations from the Standard Model values. The center-edge
and forward-backward asymmetries for all final-states fermions also show
significant deviations from the corresponding Standard Model values. The
differences between the signatures induced by the stringy corrections and the
KK gravitons are appreciable in both angular left-right and forward-backward
asymmetries.Comment: 22 pages,8 figures, expanded content, added reference
