Nuclear binding energy in holographic QCD

High Energy Physics - Theory 2021-07-21 v3 Nuclear Theory

Abstract

Saturation of the nuclear binding energy is one of the most important properties of atomic nuclei. We derive the saturation in holographic QCD, by building a shell-model-like mean-field nuclear potential from the nuclear density profile obtained in a holographic multi-baryon effective theory. The numerically estimated binding energy is close to the experimental value.
