  "abstract": "In this article, we discuss some supersymmetric probe D5 brane solutions embedded in a type 2b supergravity background solution obtained by deforming the global $AdS_5 \\times S^5$ spacetime. The D5 brane solution of interest has a non-compact worldvolume, and when it is placed alongside overlapping with an anti-$\\overline{\\text{D5}}$ solution, the combination is dual to a codimension-1 defect of the boundary $SYM$ theory. The dual defect becomes a topological symmetry defect of a $U(1)$ $0$-form global symmetry if we move the profile of the probe D5 more towards the boundary of the bulk spacetime, resulting in a U-shaped profile hanging from the boundary. We show how the hanging D5 brane can be used holographically to measure the $U(1)$ global symmetry charge of the heavy determinant operators in the SYM theory by moving them across dual giant graviton D3 branes in the bulk spacetime.",
