A holographic dual of hadrons at finite density is considered. We use the zero black-hole mass limit of Reisner-Nordstrom (RN) AdS background with hard wall to describe a confining background with finite quark density. We calculate…

We study the wave functions of light and heavy mesons in both hard-wall (HW) and soft-wall (SW) holographic models which use AdS/CFT correspondence. In the case of massless constituents, the asymptotic behaviors of the electromagnetic form…
We use the observed $SU(3)$ breaking in the mass spectrum of mesons containing a single heavy quark to place restrictions on the light quark current masses. A crucial ingredient in this analysis is our recent first-principles calculation of…

We propose to study the mass spectrum of the heavy-light mesons to probe the structure of the spin-isospin correlation in the nuclear medium. We point out that the spin-isospin correlation in the nuclear medium generates a mixing among the…
We recently presented a method of analyzing invariant-mass spectra of kaon pairs resulting from decay of $\phi$ mesons produced in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. It can be used to extract the shifts in the mass and the width ($\Delta M$…
The in-medium masses of the pseudoscalar open charm ($D$, $\bar D$, $D_s$ and $\bar {D_s}$) and open bottom ($B$, $\bar B$, $B_s$ and $\bar {B_s}$) mesons in hot asymmetric strange hadronic matter are studied within a QCD sum rule approach.…
We make a detailed study of the effect that the recently predicted modification of the in-medium masses of charmed mesons would have on $J/\Psi$ dissociation on pion and $\rho$-meson comovers in relativistic heavy ion collisions. We find a…
We revisit holographic mesons in the D4/D6 model to study holographic light vector mesons and the properties of heavy quarkonium in confining and deconfining phases. To treat the light mesons and heavy quarkonium on the same footing, we use…
