چکیده
We discuss gapless color superconductivity for neutral quark matter in β equilibrium at zero as well as at nonzero temperature. Basic properties of gapless superconductors are reviewed. The current progress and the remaining problems in the understanding of the phase diagram of strange quark matter are discussed. PACS numbers: 12.38.-t, 12.38.Aw, 12.38.Mh, 26.60.+c Submitted to: J.

Condition for gapless color-antitriplet excitations in Nambu–Jona-Lasinio models
At high baryon density and low temperature, matter is believed to be in a color superconducting state, which is characterized by condensates of quark Cooper pairs [1–4]. A superconducting phase typically has an energy gap in the density of states, which corresponds to the lowest excitation energy of a quasiparticle pair. However, if the difference between the Fermi momenta of the paired quarks ...

متن کاملGapless color superconducting phases of dense quark matter
Sufficiently cold and dense baryonic matter is expected to be a color superconductor. The corresponding ground state is characterized by a condensate of Cooper pairs made of quarks. Since the latter carry color charges, the SU(3)c color gauge group of strong interactions is partially or completely broken through the Anderson-Higgs mechanism. At asymptotic densities, this phenomenon was studied ...
