Dissociation by acceleration

TL;DR

This paper demonstrates that mesons modeled as rotating relativistic strings in a holographic framework dissociate when their acceleration surpasses a threshold proportional to the square root of string tension over angular momentum.

Contribution

It introduces a specific acceleration threshold for meson dissociation in a holographic string model, linking acceleration, angular momentum, and string tension.

Findings

Mesons dissociate at a maximum acceleration a_max ~ sqrt(T_s/J).

Dissociation threshold depends on angular momentum and string tension.

Provides a quantitative criterion for meson stability under acceleration.

Abstract

We show that mesons, described using rotating relativistic strings in a holographic setup, undergo dissociation when their acceleration 'a' exceeds a value which scales with the angular momentum 'J' as a_max ~ \sqrt{T_s/J}, where 'T_s' is the string tension.
