By working with the free energy for the type II supergravity near-horizon solution of N coincident non-extremal Dp-branes we study the transitions among the non-conformal Dp-brane system, the perturbative super Yang-Mills theory and a…
We examine the matrix theory representation of D0-brane dynamics at finite temperature. In this case, violation of supersymmetry by temperature leads to a non-trivial static potential between D0-branes at any finite temperature. We compute…
We study the dynamics and thermodynamics of a probe D3-brane in the rotating D3-brane background and in its extremal limit, which is a multicenter configuration of D3-branes distributed uniformly on a disc. In the extremal background, if…
We provide a simple method for writing the Dirac-Born-Infeld (DBI) equations of a Dp-brane in an arbitrary static background whose metric depends only on the holographic radial coordinate z. Using this method we revisit the Karch-O'Bannon's…
In this work, we tested the thermal behavior of a class of regular black hole solutions defined as generalized black-bounce spacetimes. We introduce several novel configurations governed by different mass functions and geometric…
It is known that weak coupling calculations of absorption or emission by slightly non-extremal D-brane configurations are in exact agreement with semiclassical results for the black holes they describe at strong couplings. We investigate…
The design, calibration, and initial application of a non-contact high-temperature furnace developed for in situ synchrotron X-ray experiments are presented. The system enables a stable operation up to 1000 {\deg}C, with heating rates…
We search for exact tachyon kink solutions of DBI type effective action describing an unstable D-brane with worldvolume gauge field turned in both the flat and a curved background. There are various kinds of solutions in the presence of…
In certain special circumstances, such as in the vicinity of a black hole or in a uniformly accelerating frame, vacuum fluctuations appear to give rise to a finite-temperature environment. This effect, currently without experimental…
This study explores the emission of massive charged spin-1 particles from the background of Bardeen regular spacetime by the semi-classical method used to study the Hawking radiation spectrum. We employed the Hamilton-Jacobi method and WKB…
We study static (electrically)-charged solutions of Eddington-inspired Born-Infeld (EiBI) theory of gravity in general $D$-dimensional spacetime. We consider both linear (Maxwell) as well as nonlinear electrodynamics for the matter fields.…
The local and global thermal phase structure for asymptotically anti-de Sitter black holes charged under an abelian gauge group, with both Gauss-Bonnet and quartic field strength corrections, is mapped out for all parameter space. We work…
Thermodynamics of black holes offers a promising avenue for exploring the quantum nature of black holes and quantum gravity. In this Letter, we investigate the thermodynamic properties of dyonic black holes in the five-dimensional…
We study a defect system of two parallel D5 probe branes in a large-N_c D3 background. Using the non-abelian DBI action, we study three different fields that can give rise to a superconducting phase transition: A vector (p-wave), a scalar…
In this note we study the possibility of obtaining dark energy solution in a D-brane scenario in a warped background that includes brane-position dependent corrections for the non-perturbative superpotential. The volume modulus is…
The cylinder diagrams that determine the static interactions between pairs of Dp-branes in the type IIB plane wave background are evaluated. The resulting expressions are elegant generalizations of the flat-space formulae that depend on the…
Using the geometrical thermodynamic approach, we study phase transition of Brans--Dicke Born--Infeld black holes. We apply introduced methods and describe their shortcomings. We also use the recently proposed new method and compare its…
When matter falls past the horizon of a large black hole, the expectation from string theory is that the configuration thermalizes and the information in the probe is rather quickly scrambled away. The traditional view of a classical unique…
The overcooling of cool core clusters is a persistent puzzle in the astrophysics of galaxy clusters. We propose that it may naturally be resolved via interactions between the baryons of the intracluster medium (ICM) and its dark matter…
We study the temperature of rotating probe D7-branes, dual to the temperature of flavored quarks, in the Kuperstein--Sonnenschein holographic model including the effects of spontaneous breakdown of the conformal and chiral flavor symmetry.…
