A Three-Flavor AdS/QCD Model with a Back-Reacted Geometry

TL;DR

This paper develops a back-reacted AdS/QCD model incorporating the strange quark, showing minimal impact on the geometry and negligible changes in predictions, thus extending the model's realism with little computational complexity.

Contribution

It introduces a fully back-reacted AdS/QCD model that includes the strange quark, demonstrating minimal geometric and predictive differences.

Findings

Strange quark inclusion has negligible impact on the metric.

Final predictions are only slightly affected by the strange quark.

The model remains computationally manageable with the added flavor.

Abstract

A fully back-reaction geometry model of AdS/QCD including the strange quark is described. We find that with the inclusion of the strange quark the impact on the metric is very small and the final predictions are changed only negligibly.
