A note on holographic superconductors with Weyl Corrections

arXiv:1106.0431 · doi:10.1142/S0217732311037169

Abstract

We study analytical properties of the holographic superconductors with Weyl corrections. We describe the phenomena in the probe limit neglecting backreaction of the space-time. We observe that for the conformal dimension $\triangle_{+}=3$, the minimum value of the critical temperature $T^{Min}_c$ at which condensation sets, can be obtained directly from the equations of motion as $T^{Min}_c\approx 0.170845\sqrt[3]ρ$, which is in very good agreement with the numerical value $T^{Min}_c=0.170\sqrt[3]ρ$ [Phys.Lett.B697:153-158,2011]. This value of $T^{Min}_c$ corresponds to the value of the Weyl's coupling $γ=-0.06$ in table (1) of [Phys.Lett.B697:153-158,2011]. We calculate the $T^{Min}_c\approx 0.21408\sqrt[3]ρ$ for another Weyl's coupling $γ=0.02$ and the the conformal dimension $\triangle_{-}=1$. Further, we show that the critical exponent is $β=1/2$. We observe that there is a linear relation between the charge density $ρ$ and the chemical potential difference $μ-μ_c$ qualitatively matches the numerical curves.
