Baryon Number Penetrability as a Measure of Isothermal Baryon Number Fluctuations in the Early Universe
We have examined the efficiency of baryon-number transport mechanism across the phase boundary in a cosmological quark-hadron phase transition through the proper estimate of baryon-number penetrability 〈Σh〉. For this purpose we have derived first the double-pair creation probability Pb in terms of single-pair creation probabilty per unit time and unit volume κm and then obtained an analytical e...
متن کامل2002 Electroweak Baryon Number Violation
The conditions for baryogenesis in the early universe are well-known (cf. Refs. [1, 2]): 1. C and CP violation, 2. thermal nonequilibrium, 3. violation of baryon number conservation. How realistic are these requirements? Well, noninvariance under the charge conjugation transformation (C) and the combined charge conjugation and parity reflection transformation (CP) have been observed in the labo...
متن کاملCan Gluons Trace Baryon Number ?
QCD as a gauge non-Abelian theory imposes severe constraints on the structure of the baryon wave function. We point out that, contrary to a widely accepted belief, the traces of baryon number in a high-energy process can reside in a non-perturbative configuration of gluon fields, rather than in the valence quarks. We argue that this conjecture can be tested experimentally, since it can lead to ...
متن کاملGauss’ Linking Number Revisited
In this paper we provide a mathematical reconstruction of what might have been Gauss’ own derivation of the linking number of 1833, providing also an alternative, explicit proof of its modern interpretation in terms of degree, signed crossings and intersection number. The reconstruction presented here is entirely based on an accurate study of Gauss’ own work on terrestrial magnetism. A brief di...
متن کاملMultiplicative Conservation of Baryon Number and Baryogenesis
In the canonical seesaw mechanism of neutrino mass, lepton number is only multiplicatively conserved, which enables the important phenomenon of leptogenesis to occur, as an attractive explanation of the present baryon asymmetry of the Universe. A parallel possibility, hitherto unrecognized, also holds for baryon number and baryogenesis. This new idea is shown to be naturally realized in the con...
