Orientation dependence of confinement-deconfinement phase transition in anisotropic media

We study the T-μ phase diagram of anisotropic media, created in heavy-ion collisions (HIC). Such a statement of the problem is due to several indications that this media is anisotropic just after HIC. To study T-μ phase diagram we use holographic methods. To take into account the anisotropy we use an anisotropic black brane solutions for a bottom-up QCD approach in 5-dim Einstein-dilaton-two-Maxwell model constructed in our previous work. We calculate the minimal surfaces of the corresponding probing open string world-sheet in anisotropic backgrounds with various temperatures and chemical potentials. The dynamical wall (DW) locations, providing the quark confinement, depend on the orientation of the quark pairs, that gives a crossover transition between confinement/deconfinement phases in the dual gauge theory. © 2019 The Author(s)
