Emission of linearly polarized photons in a strongly coupled magnetized plasma from the gauge/gravity correspondence
نویسندگان
چکیده
We use holographic methods to show that photons emitted by a strongly coupled plasma subject magnetic field are linearly polarized regardless of their four-momentum, except when they propagate along the direction. The gravitational dual is constructed using 5D truncation 10-dimensional type IIB supergravity, and includes scalar in addition constant one. In terms geometry collision experiment we model, our statement any photon produced there has be its only polarization state parallel reaction plane.

Diffusion in a strongly coupled magnetized plasma.
A first-principles study of diffusion in a strongly coupled one-component plasma in a magnetic field B is presented. As in a weakly coupled plasma, the diffusion coefficient perpendicular to the field exhibits a Bohm-like 1/B behavior in the strong-field limit but its overall scaling is substantially different. The diffusion coefficient parallel to the field is strongly affected by the field as...
متن کاملLinearly Polarized Photons
The process of electron-positron pair production by linearly polarized photons is used as a polarimeter to perform mobile measurement of linear photon polarization. In the limit of high photon energies, ω, the distributions of the recoil-electron momentum and azimuthal angle do not depend on the photon energy in the laboratory frame. We calculate the power corrections of order m/ω to the above ...
متن کاملDynamics of Entanglement between Linearly Polarized Photons and π -Electrons in Graphene
In the present article we report the dynamical behavior of entanglement between π-electrons and photons in Graphene. It is shown that the degree of such entanglements depend on the orientation of π-electron momenta relative to the photonic polarization. Moreover, we show that as the detuning between the π-electron transition frequencies and that of the photons is increased, the degree of entang...
متن کاملPolarization Evolution in A Strongly Magnetized Vacuum: QED Effect and Polarized X-ray Emission from Magnetized Neutron Stars
X-ray photons emitted from the surface or atmosphere of a magnetized neutron star is highly polarized. However, the observed polarization may be modified due to photon propagation through the star’s magnetosphere. For photon frequencies much larger than the typical radio frequency, vacuum birefringence due to strong-field quantum electrodynamics dominates over the plasma effect. We study the ev...
متن کاملPhotoproduction of Mesons with Linearly Polarized Photons
We propose to measure the reaction ~ + p! p+ with ! K+K in the photon energy range of 1:9 < E < 2:2 GeV by tagging the incident photon energy and detecting the nal-state proton in coincidence with the decayK+ in the CLAS detector. The photons will be produced by coherent bremsstrahlung from a 4 GeV (6 GeV) electron beam incident on a diamond radiator, and will provide an average polarization of...
