Multiply charged magnetic black branes

Abstract

Abstract We discuss analytic solutions describing magnetically charged black branes in d dimensional AdS space. Focusing on d = 5, we study the response of the brane to an external short lived electric field. We argue that when the theory possesses an ’t Hooft anomaly then at sufficiently low temperature a long lived oscillatory current will be observed long after the electric field has been turned off. We demonstrate this “anomalous resonance” effect via a numerical study.
