The relation of these phase structures to the dilaton potential is clarified and illustrating examples are presented. Having in mind applications to QCD we study vector mesons in the probe limit with the goal to figure out conditions for forming Regge type series of radial excitations and address the issue of meson melting.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-07-11T17:49:45.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "phase structures emerging", "finite temperature", "einstein gravity", "dilaton models", "holography" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
