In order to investigate how the drag force is affected by translational symmetry breaking (TSB), we utilize a holographic model in which the background metric remains translational symmetric while a graviton mass or other fields in the theory break this symmetry. We calculate analytically the drag force, considering an asymptotic $AdS_5$ in which parameter {\alpha} arises from TSB. This parameter can be intuitively understood as a measure of TSB strength and we anticipate that non-zero values of it will affect the drag force. In this asymptotic AdS5 background, we will demonstrate that a decrease in {\alpha} results in a reduction of the drag force. Moreover, we study the diffusion constant, which falls with increasing {\alpha}. It will eventually be shown that at lower values of {\alpha} or {\mu} (chemical potential), the transverse diffusion coefficient is larger than the longitudinal one, and the speed of the heavy quark has minimal impact on the ratio.

    hep-th 2025-10 conditional novelty 4.0

    In a holographic model with broken translational symmetry, chemical potential and magnetic fields lower the Schwinger pair-production barrier, while the disorder parameter raises it near and above the critical field.
