Zusammenfassung: | We study bubble walls in the holographic D3/probe D7 system that is dual to
strongly coupled quark dynamics. We work to construct holographic descriptions
of bubble wall junctions where we can tune the bubble wall height and pressure
difference in a theory at zero temperature and density. We study the system in
the presence of a background axial vector field b that induces a Weyl
semi-metal, massless phase and a background magnetic field B which favours mass
generation. We find a first order transition line in the mass-$B$ plane, at
fixed b, ending at a critical point. We present some preliminary solutions of
PDEs that describe the motion of one dimensional bubble walls in this theory,
with a stationary initial condition - large pressure differences accelerate the
wall to the speed of light whilst when the pressure difference is small the
wall slumps to an interpolating solution. We also take the first steps to
include temperature and see evidence of thermal drag slowing the wall motion.
Slump configurations at finite temperature show some signs of a back pressure
wave against the wall motion. |
