We investigate the superradiant (in)stability of the extremal multi-charge static black holes in the STU supergravity model, which reduce to the RN black hole when all the charges are equal. We first show that the frequency of quasi-bound…
We study the self force acting on a particle endowed with scalar charge, which is held static (with respect to an undragged, static observer at infinity) outside a stationary, axially-symmetric black hole. We find that the acceleration due…
We use gauge/string duality to model a doubly heavy diquark in a color antitriplet moving in a thermal plasma at temperatures near the critical. With the assumption that there is no relative motion between the constituents, we calculate the…
This paper investigates the influence of heavy-quark momentum on their interaction rate and the resulting drag coefficient in a quark-gluon plasma. To go beyond simplified treatments, we introduce a phenomenological extension of the drag…

Superstrata are bound states in string theory that carry D1, D5, and momentum charges, and whose supergravity descriptions are parameterized by arbitrary functions of (at least) two variables. In the D1-D5 CFT, typical three-charge states…
