Entropy for Color Superconductivity in Quark Matter
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study a model for color superconductivity with both three colors and massless flavors including quark pairing. By using the Hamiltonian in the color-flavor basis we can calculate the quantum entropy. From this we are able to further investigate the phases of the color superconductor, for which we find a rather sharp transition to color superconductivity above a chemical potential around 290 MeV.

Quark matter in neutron stars
According to quantum chromodynamics, matter at ultra-high density and low temperature is a quark liquid, with a condensate of Cooper pairs of quarks near the Fermi surface (“color superconductivity”). This paper reviews the physics of color superconductivity, and discusses some of the proposed signatures by which we might detect quark matter in neutron stars.

متن کاملCompact stars with color superconducting quark matter
We study compact stars that contain quark matter. We look at the effect of color superconductivity in the quark matter on the nuclear-quark matter transition density, mass-radius relationship, and the density discontinuity at the boundary between nuclear and quark matter. We find that color superconducting quark matter will occur in compact stars at values of the bag constant where ordinary qua...
متن کاملStrange color superconductivity in QCD
We propose a new state, strange color superconductivity, that appears in strange quark matter when total barion number density is fixed. In this state, heavy squarks, with a small Fermi surface, ’strangly’ pair with light u or d quarks that have a larger nominal Fermi surface, opening a gap there. There are gapless states in the intermediate region. Strange color superconductivity might be real...
متن کاملDense quark matter in nature
According to quantum chromodynamics (QCD), matter at ultra-high densities will take the form of a color-superconducting quark liquid, in which there is a condensate of Cooper pairs of quarks near the Fermi surface. I present a review of the physics of color superconductivity. I give particular attention to the recently proposed gapless CFL (gCFL) phase, which has unusual properties such as quas...
