Holographic Thermalization in Quark Confining Background

Understand

We study holographic thermalization of a strongly coupled theory inspired by two colliding shock waves in a vacuum confining background.

• Holographic thermalization means a black hole formation, in fact a trapped surface formation.
• As a vacuum confining background we considered a well know bottom-up AdS/QCD model that provides the Cornell potential as well as reproduces QCD beta-function.
• We perturb vacuum background by colliding domain shock waves, that are assumed to be holographically dual to heavy ions collisions.
