Meson widths from string worldsheet instantons

We show that open strings living on a D-brane which lies outside an AdS black hole We show that open strings living on a D-brane which lies outside an AdS black hole can tunnel into the black hole through worldsheet instantons. These instantons have a simple interpretation in terms of thermal quarks...
