18 General solution with metric back reaction Kim,BHL, Park, Sin, hep-th/ (JHEP 09(2007) ) Note : For a=0, the solution reduces to the dilaton-wall solution. For c=0, becomes the AdS Schwarzschild black hole solution. with T by Hence, describes the finite temperature with the gluon condensation with the metric having an essential singularity at Thermodynamics with gluon condensation Gluon condensate is sensitive to the QCD deconfinement transitio n. The heavy quark potential becomes deeper as the gluon condensate value decreases. Kim, BHL, Park, Sin, arxiv: (PRD80,2009).

20 hard wall approach Various meson masses depending on the gluon condensation - As the gluon condensation increases mass of the vector meson decreases slightly while masses of the axial vector meson and pion increase very slowl y

21 Braneless approach - singlularity identified with the IR cutoff Boundary condition at z=0, at z=zc Fixing zc by mρ= 776 MeV gives zc = 1/325 MeV Gluon condensation (for Nc = 3) Cf. Lattice calculation decreases as T increases Meson masses Miller, hep-ph/ (Phys. Rept, 2007) Rho-meson masses - meson spectra well defined in spite of the singularity - meson masses similar to those in EKSS model for gluon condensation larger than that of lattice calculation. - Meson spectra significantly depend on the gluon condensate - As the gluon condensation becomes large, masses of the vector meson and pion increase while masses of the axial vector mesons decrease

31 With a zero quark mass, the ρ mass increases as the quar k density increases. (consistent wi th the previous results with the qu ark density and the chiral condens ate as parameters separately.) The a1-meson mass and pion ma ss decrease with the quark density. The results are consistent with th e spectra with the chiral condensa te, but contrary to the spectra with the quark density.
