We present the holographic dual to a family of ${\cal N}=1$ SCFTs in four dimensions, deformed by a VEV leading to a gapped system. We calculate Wilson loops in this system containing adjoint, bifundamental and fundamental matter. We…

We compute bounds on screened scalar field theories from hydrogen-like systems. New light scalar fields generically have a direct coupling to matter. Such a coupling is strongly constrained by myriad experimental measurements. However,…
Confinement describes the phenomenon when the attraction between two particles grows with their distance, most prominently found in quantum chromodynamics (QCD) between quarks. In condensed matter physics, confinement can appear in quantum…

The supercurrent field effect is experimentally realized in various nano-scale devices, based on the superconductivity suppression by external electric fields being effective for confined systems. In spite of intense research, a microscopic…

For a gauge theory which includes a light massive vector field interacting with the familiar photon U(1)_{QED} via a Chern-Simons- like coupling, we study the static quantum potential. Our analysis is based on the gauge-invariant, but…
We study the charge screening effect in the hadron-quark mixed phase. By including the charge screening effect, rearrangement of charged particles occurs and some part becomes locally charge-neutral. As a result the equation of state for…
The strong interaction between quarks inside hadrons in curved spacetime is investigated in the presence of a new non-abelian gauge potential based on the $SU(3)$ group. This potential presented both chromo-electric and chromo-magnetic…
Confinement is a ubiquitous mechanism in nature, whereby particles feel an attractive force that increases without bound as they separate. A prominent example is color confinement in particle physics, in which baryons and mesons are…
A common approach while considering confinement is to study the dominance of an Abelian subgroup of the SU(3) gauge Links. A good way to find the Abelian component of the field is through the Cho-Guan-De gauge invariant Abelian…
Electron-electron interactions generally reduce the low temperature resistivity due to the screening of the impurity potential by the electron gas. In the weak-coupling limit, the magnitude of this screening effect is determined by the…
