We discuss phenomenological implications of the anomalous transport induced by the scale anomaly in QCD coupled to an electromagnetic (EM) field, based on a dilaton effective theory. The scale anomalous current emerges in a way perfectly analogous to the conformal transport current induced in a curved spacetime background, or the Nernst current in Dirac and Weyl semimetals -- both current forms are equivalent by a "Weyl transformation". We focus on a spatially homogeneous system of QCD hadron phase, which is expected to be created after the QCD phase transition and thermalization. We find that the EM field can induce a dynamic oscillatory dilaton field which in turn induces the scale anomalous current. As the phenomenological applications, we evaluate the dilepton and diphoton productions induced from the dynamic scale anomalous current, and find that those productions include a characteristic peak structure related to the dynamic oscillatory dilaton, which could be tested in heavy ion collisions. We also briefly discuss the out-of-equilibrium particle production created by a nonadiabatic dilaton oscillation, which happens in a way of the so-called tachyonic preheating mechanism.

  1. Holographic analysis of near-conformal dynamics and light dilaton

    hep-ph 2025-04 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    In bottom-up holographic models of near-conformal gauge theories, a parametrically light dilaton exists only for nearly Neumann infrared boundary conditions, and this persists when a full ultraviolet RG flow is included.
