| Summary: | Abstract We calculate energy correlators in a general holographic model of confinement, involving an asymptotically anti-de Sitter (AdS) warped extra dimension. Building on a recent computation in a minimal hard-wall model of confinement, we show that the shockwave method for efficiently computing energy correlators in AdS generalizes to an arbitrary warped geometry. This is possible because exact, linear shockwave solutions to the 5D field equations exist in any warped background. We apply our formalism to compute the two-point energy correlator for two simple models of confinement with interesting infrared spectra — one with a gapped continuum spectrum and one with linear Regge trajectories. The results differ from the simple hard-wall model and from each other, demonstrating that the details of the confining dynamics affect the shape of the energy correlator observables. |
