Electromagnetic instability and Schwinger effect in the Witten–Sakai–Sugimoto model with D0–D4 background

Abstract Using the Witten–Sakai–Sugimoto model in the D0–D4 background, we holographically compute the vacuum decay rate of the Schwinger effect in this model. Our calculation contains the influence of the D0-brane density which could be identified as the $$\theta $$ θ angle or chiral potential in Q...
