Analytic study on chiral phase transition in holographic QCD

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: The chiral symmetry breaking (chiSB) is one of the most fundamental problems in QCD. In this paper, we calculate quark condensation analytically in a holographic QCD model dual to the Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton (EMD) system coupled to a probe scalar field. We find that the black hole phase transition in the EMD system seriously affects chiSB. At small chemical potential, chiSB behaves as a crossover. For large chemical potential mu>muc, chiSB becomes first order with exactly the same transition temperature as the black hole phase transition by a bypass mechanism. The phase diagram we obtained is qualitatively consistent with the recent results from lattice QCD simulations and NJL models.
