    Intertwined order and holography: the case of the parity breaking pair density wave

    Get PDF
    We present a minimal bottom-up extension of the Chern-Simons bulk action for holographic translational symmetry breaking that naturally gives rise to pair density waves. We construct stationary inhomogeneous black hole solutions in which both the U(1) symmetry and spatially translational symmetry are spontaneously broken at finite temperature and charge density. This novel solution provides a dual description of a superconducting phase intertwined with charge, current and parity orders.Comment: v3: Revised version in which the rules of effective field theory are highlighted, to appear in Phys.Rev.Let

    Hunting for a scalar glueball in exclusive B decays

    Get PDF
    Using flavor SU(3) symmetry for the light quarks validated by the available experimental data, we propose an intuitive way to hunt for a scalar glueball in B decays. In the presence of mixing between the glueball and ordinary scalar mesons, we explore the extraction of the mixing parameters. In particular, we discuss the implication from the recently available experimental data and show the sensitivities of B decays as a probe to the scalar structures. The future Super KEKB factory would allow access to establishing the mixing pattern among the scalars, and possibly allow one to disentangle the long-standing puzzle concerning the existence and mixings of the scalar glueball predicted by QCD.Comment: 5 pages, 1 figur

    Competition between s-wave order and d-wave order in holographic superconductors

    Get PDF
    We study competition between s-wave order and d-wave order through two holographic superconductor models. We find that once the coexisting phase appears, it is always thermodynamically favored, and that the coexistence phase is narrow and one condensate tends to kill the other. The phase diagram is constructed for each model in terms of temperature and the ratio of charges of two orders. We further compare the behaviors of some thermodynamic quantities, and discuss the different aspects and identical ones between two models.Comment: 3 figures added, accepted by JHE

    Gluon Fusion induced Zg and Zgg Productions in the Standard Model at the LHC

    Full text link
    We report calculations of the gluon induced Zg and Zgg productions in the Standard Model at the LHC operating at both 7 TeV and 14 TeV collision energy. We present total cross sections and differential distributions of the processes and compare them with the leading and next-to-leading order QCD pp -> Z+1 jet, Z+2 jets results. Our results show that the gluon induced Zg and Zgg productions contribute to pp -> Z+1 jet, Z+2 jets at 1% level.Comment: 8 pages, 5 figure
