We discuss an interpretation that a peak in the sound velocity in neutron star matter, as
suggested by the observational data, signifies strongly coupled conformal matter. The …

With the aim of exploring the evidence for or against phase transitions in cold and dense
baryonic matter, the inference of the sound speed and equation of state for dense matter in …

We obtain the equation of state (EoS) for two-color quantum chromodynamics (QCD) at low
temperature and high density from the lattice Monte Carlo simulation. We find that the …

We discuss stiffening of dense matter in two color QCD (QC 2 D) where hadrons are mesons
and diquark baryons. We study two models which describe a transition of matter from the …

We derive robust bounds on the equation of state (EOS) at finite baryon chemical potential
using QCD inequalities and input from recent lattice-QCD calculations of thermodynamic …

This review is devoted to the modern understanding of the two-color QCD phase diagram at
finite baryon density and low temperatures. First, we consider the theoretical picture of this …

A bstract The equation of state of QCD matter at high densities is relevant for neutron star
structure and for neutron star mergers and has been a focus of recent work. We show how …

In this paper we report on lattice simulations of SU (3)–QCD with nonzero chiral chemical
potential. We focus on the influence of the chiral chemical potential on the confinement …

In this paper, we carry out a low-temperature scan of the phase diagram of dense two-color
QCD with N f= 2 quarks. The study is conducted using lattice simulation with rooted …

In this paper QCD at large isospin density is studied, which is known to be in the superfluid
state with Cooper pairs carrying the same quantum number as pions. The gap equation …
