Color-flavor locked strangelets.
Finite lumps of color-flavor locked strange-quark matter (CFL strangelets) are significantly more stable than strangelets without color-flavor locking for wide ranges of parameters, increasing the likelihood of strangelet metastability, or even absolute stability beyond some minimum baryon number A(min). Whereas bulk CFL strange-quark matter is electrically neutral, CFL strangelets are positive...
متن کاملColor-flavor locked strangelets and their detection
Strange quark matter in a color-flavor locked state is significantly more bound than “ordinary” strange quark matter. This increases the likelihood of strangelet metastability or even absolute stability. Properties of color-flavor locked strangelets are discussed and compared to ordinary strangelets. Apart from differences in binding energy, the main difference is related to the charge. A stati...
متن کاملColor-flavor locked strangelets in a quark mass density-dependent model
The color-flavor locked (CFL) phase of strangelets is investigated in a quark mass densitydependent model. Parameters are determined by stability arguments. It is concluded that three solutions to the system equations can be found, corresponding, respectively, to positively charged, negatively charged, and nearly neutral CFL strangelets. The charge to baryon number of the positively charged str...
متن کاملEvaluating the Gapless Color - Flavor Locked Phase
In neutral cold quark matter that is sufficiently dense that the strange quark mass Ms is unimportant, all nine quarks (three colors; three flavors) pair in a color-flavor locked (CFL) pattern, and all fermionic quasiparticles have a gap. We recently argued that the next phase down in density (as a function of decreasing quark chemical potential μ or increasing strange quark mass Ms) is the new...
متن کاملColor Flavor Locked Quark matter properties
Quark matter at its highest densities; is expected to become a color superconductor and transition to a phase called color flavor locking (CFL)[1]. Because of asymptotic freedom, the theory becomes weaker at high densities [1] and some kind of superconductivity can be expected[2]. At the CFL phase it behaves as a superfluid[3]and has Chiral Symmetry breaking[1]. Possible observations or experim...
