Abstract
We consider holographic thermalization in the presence of a Weyl correction in five dimensional AdS space We first obtain the Weyl corrected black brane solution perturbatively up to first order in the coupling The corresponding AdSVaidya like solution is then constructed This is then used to numerically analyze the time dependence of the two point correlation functions and the expectation values of rectangular Wilson loops in the boundary field theory and we discuss how the Weyl correction can modify the thermalization time scales in the dual field theory In this context the subtle interplay between the Weyl coupling constant and the chemical potential is studied in detailThis article is published under an open access license Please check the Copyright Information section for details of this license and what reuse is permitted If your intended use exceeds what is permitted by the license or if you are unable to locate the licence and reuse information please contact the Rights and Permissions team
