A black hole-like solution to a toy model scalar field action for the pion is presented. It has a "horizon" that traps pion field information (it cannot escape in finite time) and is thermal, with a finite and calculable temperature, $T=\sqrt{2}/(\pi\alpha)$, with $\alpha$ a coupling parameter. The action is a scalar DBI action (D-brane action), coupled to a particular fixed source term. The DBI action by itself has "catenoid" solutions that have horizons with infinite temperature and trap only…

We study diffractive vector-meson photoproduction using string theory via AdS/CFT. The large s behavior of the cross sections for the scattering of the vector meson V on a proton is dominated by the
Galileons are a class of scalar field theories which have been found to arise in a disparate variety of contexts and exhibit a host of interesting properties by themselves, both classical and

We argue for the existence of plasma balls—metastable, nearly homogeneous lumps of gluon plasma at just above the deconfinement energy density—in a class of large-N confining gauge theories that
AbstractIn the classical theory black holes can only absorb and not emit particles. However it is shown that quantum mechanical effects cause black holes to create and emit particles as if they were
We argue that the fireball observed at RHIC is (the analog of) a dual black hole. In previous works, we have argued that the large $s$ behaviour of the total QCD cross section is due to production of
In previous treatments, high energy QCD was analyzed using AdS-CFT a la Polchinski-Strassler. Black hole production in AdS was responsible for power law behaviour of the total QCD cross section.
We analyze the high energy scattering of hadrons in QCD in an effective theory model inspired from a gravity dual description. The nucleons are skyrmion-like solutions of a DBI action, and boosted
Abstract It has been observed recently that many properties of some near extremal black holes can be described in terms of bound states of D-branes. Using a non-renormalization theorem we argue that
