Phase 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 کاملNovel phases and transitions in quark matter
We analyze the phases of dense quark matter at nonzero quark masses. We map out the phase diagrams for charged quark matter as well as charge neutral matter containing leptons. We find that the Color Flavor Locked (CFL) phase is unlikely to ever occur in nature. Various color superconducting meson condensed phases may play a role in neutron star cores, however, in agreement with the analysis of...
متن کاملNovel phases and transitions in Color Flavor Locked matter
We analyze the phases of dense quark matter at nonzero quark masses. We map out the phase diagrams for charged quark matter as well as charge neutral matter containing leptons. We find that in Color Flavor Locked (CFL) quark matter, the symmetric phase with equal numbers of u, d and s quarks is unlikely to occur in nature. Various less symmetric phases with additional meson condensates may play...
متن کاملColor - Flavor Unlocking and Phase Diagram with Self - Consistently Determined Strange Quark Masses
The phase diagram of strongly interacting matter at non-zero temperature and baryon chemical potential is calculated within a 3-flavor NJL-type quark model with realistic quark masses. The model exhibits spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking as well as diquark condensation in the two-flavor color-superconducting phase and in the color-flavor locked phase. We investigate the color-flavor unlockin...
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...
