Phase Diagram of Neutral Quark Matter at Moderate Densities
نویسندگان
چکیده
We discuss the phase diagram of moderately dense, locally neutral three-flavor quark matter using the framework of an effective model of quantum chromodynamics with a local interaction. The phase diagrams in the plane of temperature and quark chemical potential as well as in the plane of temperature and lepton-number chemical potential are discussed.

The phases of isospin asymmetric matter in the two flavor NJL model
We investigate the phase diagram of isospin asymmetric matter at T=0 in the two flavor Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model. Our approach describes the single nucleon as a confined quark-diquark state, the saturation properties of nuclear matter at normal densities, and the phase transition to normal or color superconducting quark matter at higher densities. The resulting equation of state of charge neutra...
متن کاملPhase diagram of neutral quark matter: Self-consistent treatment of quark masses
Theoretical studies suggest that quark matter at suffi ciently high densities and suffi ciently low temperatures may be a color superconductor. (For a review on color superconductivity see for example, Ref. [1].) In nature such conditions appear in the central regions of neutron stars. Therefore it is possible that matter is color superconducting in the cores of these objects. In compact stars ...
متن کاملEffects of density-dependent quark mass on phase diagram of three-flavor quark matter
Considering the density dependence of quark mass, we investigate the phase transition between the ( unpaired ) strange quark matter and the color-flavor-locked matter, which are supposed to be two candidates for the ground state of strongly interacting matter. We find that if the current mass of strange quarkms is small, the strange quark matter remains stable unless the baryon density is very ...

متن کاملDensity dependence of quark masses and stability of color-flavor locked phases
Considering the density dependence of quark masses, we investigate the color-flavorlocked matter and its stability relative to the ( unpaired ) strange quark matter. We find that, when the current mass of strange quark ms is small, the strange quark matter remains stable for the moderate baryon densities. When ms is large, the gapless phase of the color-flavor-locked matter is found to be diffi...
