Holographic QCD in medium: a bottom up approach

Abstract

A holographic dual of hadrons at finite density is considered. We use the zero black-hole mass limit of Reisner-Nordstrom (RN) AdS background with hard wall to describe a confining background with finite quark density. We calculate density-dependence of meson masses and decay constants. In our model, pion decay constant and its velocity go down but all the meson masses go up as density grows.
