John Terning’s View of Physics
2006
A new paper by Karch, Katz, Son, and Stephanov attempts to modify the 5D AdS background that is used to model QCD in order to obtain the behaviour of a string state with large spin or excitation number. They find
that this can occur in a non-trivial dilaton background.
