  We study the temperature of rotating probe D7-branes, dual to the temperature
of flavored quarks, in the Kuperstein--Sonnenschein holographic model including
the effects of spontaneous breakdown of the conformal and chiral flavor
symmetry. The model embeds probe D7-branes into the Klebanov-Witten gravity
dual of conformal gauge theory, with the embedding parameter, given by the
minimal radial extension of the probe, setting the IR scale of conformal and
chiral flavor symmetry breakdown. We show that when the minimal extension is
positive definite and additional spin is turned on, the induced world volume
metrics on the probe admit thermal horizons and Hawking temperatures despite
the absence of black holes in the bulk. We find the scale and behavior of the
temperature in flavored quarks are determined notably by the IR scale of
symmetry breaking, and by the strength and sort of external fields. We also
derive the energy--stress tensor of the rotating probe and study its
backreaction and energy dissipation. We show that at the IR scale the
backreaction is non-negligible and find the energy can flow from the probe to
the bulk, dual to the energy dissipation from the flavor sector into the gauge
theory.
