Baryons from supergravity

Abstract: We study the construction of baryons via supergravity along the line suggested recently by Witten and by Gross and Ooguri. We calculate the energy of the baryon as a function of its size. As expected the energy is linear with N . For the non-supersymmetric theories (in three and four dimensions) we find a linear relation which is an indication of confinement. For the N = 4 theory we obtain the result (EL = −const.) which is compatible with conformal invariance. Surprisingly, our calculation suggests that there… Show more

“…Branch-cut of the free-energy density at λ = ∞ is a genuine prediction for the strong coupling limit, along with the heavy quark potential, both at zero [5,6] and finite temperatures [7,8,9], and anomalous dimensions of long supermultiplets [10,11]. Were it interpolating smoothly over the entire 't Hooft coupling parameter space, the function h(λ) in Eq.…”

“…Following [32,41] we can consider a configuration with a reduced number r of fundamental strings going to the boundary, the rest of the strings (up to the number required to cancel the tadpole) can go to the IR of the gravity solution. In holographic terms, this means that the baryons we consider have less quarks than the baryons of the previous subsections.…”

“…The approach in this direction has been applied to the confining gauge theories [10,11,12]. In this case, the no force condition, a balance of the tensions of the D5 brane and the F-strings, is imposed at their connected point(s) [13,14]. However, in [13,14], the configuration of D5 branes with dissolved F-strings has not been considered.…”

However, in [13,14], the configuration of D5 branes with dissolved F-strings has not been considered. In [10], the D5 configuration has been taken into account of, but the no force condition has been used only in a restricted direction, then the structure of the F-strings is neglected.…”
