Condensate phases of nuclear matter from AdS Hardwall models

Abstract

This work develops our previous study of confined phases at finite densities in AdS/QCD by systematically exploring the possibility of baryonic condensates. Using phenomenologically motivated boundary conditions in an AdS hardwall model, we show that both baryonic and quark type condensates dominate the phase diagram at low temperatures. We also undertake a careful scan of the parameter space to extract robust conclusions.
