Constraining vectors and axial-vectors in walking technicolour by a holographic principle

Dietrich, Dennis D., Kouvaris, Chris

Understand

We use a holographic principle to study the low-energy spectrum of walking technicolour models.

  • In particular, we predict the masses of the axial vectors as well as the decay constants of vectors and axial vectors as functions of the mass of the techni-rho.
  • Given that there are very few nonperturbative techniques to study strongly coupled theories, using holography might provide us with insight into how to constrain the parameters of the low-energy effective action of walking technicolour models.
  • We also compare our results with findings from other setups.
