G Aarts, J Aichelin, C Allton, A Athenodorou… - Progress in Particle and …, 2023 - Elsevier
Phase transitions in a non-perturbative regime can be studied by ab initio Lattice Field
Theory methods. The status and future research directions for LFT investigations of Quantum …

The phase diagram of dense QCD

K Fukushima, T Hatsuda - Reports on Progress in Physics, 2010 - iopscience.iop.org
The current status of theoretical studies on the quantum chromodynamics (QCD) phase
diagram at finite temperature and baryon chemical potential is reviewed with special …

Dark quark nuggets

Y Bai, AJ Long, S Lu - Physical Review D, 2019 - APS
“Dark quark nuggets,” a lump of dark quark matter, can be produced in the early universe for
a wide range of confining gauge theories and serve as a macroscopic dark matter …

Peaks of sound velocity in two color dense QCD: Quark saturation effects and semishort range correlations

T Kojo, D Suenaga - Physical Review D, 2022 - APS
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 …

Phase diagram of dense two-color QCD at low temperatures

VV Braguta - Symmetry, 2023 - mdpi.com
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 …

[图书][B] Statistical approach to quantum field theory

A Wipf - 2013 - Springer
A quantum field theory (QFT) is an extension of the principles of quantum mechanics to
fields based on the wave properties of matter. It is generally accepted that QFT is an …

Remarks on nuclear matter: How an condensate can spike the speed of sound, and a model of baryons

RD Pisarski - Physical Review D, 2021 - APS
I make two comments about nuclear matter. First, I consider the effects of a coupling
between the O (4) chiral field, ϕ→, and the ω μ meson,∼+ ϕ→ 2 ω μ 2; for any net baryon …

Quark-meson-diquark model for two-color QCD

N Strodthoff, BJ Schaefer, L von Smekal - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields …, 2012 - APS
We introduce a two-flavor quark-meson-diquark model for two-color QCD and its extensions
to include gauge-field dynamics as described by the Polyakov loop. Grand potential and …

Towards the phase diagram of dense two-color matter

S Cotter, P Giudice, S Hands, JI Skullerud - Physical Review D—Particles …, 2013 - APS
We study two-color QCD with two flavors of Wilson fermion as a function of quark chemical
potential μ and temperature T. We find evidence of a superfluid phase at intermediate μ and …

Insights on the peak in the speed of sound of ultradense matter

M Hippert, ES Fraga, J Noronha - Physical Review D, 2021 - APS
In this work we investigate the minimal physical requirements needed for generating a
speed of sound that surpasses its asymptotic conformal limit. It is shown that a peak in the …
