Nernst branes in gauged supergravity

Understand

We study static black brane solutions in the context of N = 2 U(1) gauged supergravity in four dimensions.

• Using the formalism of first-order flow equations, we construct novel extremal black brane solutions including examples of Nernst branes, i.e.
• extremal black brane solutions with vanishing entropy density.
• We also discuss a class of non-extremal generalizations which is captured by the first-order formalism.
