Chiral condensates and size of the sigma term
نویسنده
چکیده
The in-medium chiral condensate is studied with a new approach which has the advantage of no need for extra assumptions on the current mass derivatives of model parameters. It is shown that the pion-nucleon sigma term is 9/2 times the average current mass of light quarks, if quark confinement is linear. Considering both perturbative and non-perturbative interactions, the chiral condensate decreases monotonously with increasing densities, approaching to zero at about 4 fm.

Larger domains from resonant decay of disoriented chiral condensates
The decay of disoriented chiral condensates into soft pions is considered within the context of a linear sigma model. Unlike earlier analytic studies, which focused on the production of pions as the sigma field rolled down toward its new equilibrium value, here we focus on the amplification of long-wavelength pion modes due to parametric resonance as the sigma field oscillates around the minimu...
متن کاملChiral Symmetry Restoration at Finite Temperature in the Linear Sigma– Model
The temperature behaviour of meson condensates < σ0 > and < σ8 > is calculated in the SU(3) × SU(3)-linear sigma model. The couplings of the Lagrangian are fitted to the physical π,K, η, η′ masses, the pion decay constant and a O+(I = 0) scalar mass of mσ = 1.5 GeV. The quartic terms of the mesonic interaction are converted to a quadratic term with the help of a Hubbard-Stratonovich transformat...

I discuss several topics in the applications of chiral symmetry at nonzero temperature. First, where does the rho go? The answer: up. The restoration of chiral symmetry at a temperature T implies that the and a 1 vector mesons are degenerate in mass. In a gauged linear sigma model the mass increases with temperature, m (T) > m (0). I conjecture that at T the thermal ? a 1 peak is relatively hig...
متن کاملDisoriented Chiral Condensates in Hadron-Hadron Collisions
We review recent progress in the description and understanding of disoriented chiral condensates. Certain important unsolved issues are underlined, and the preliminary results of our program of investigation of these issues in the framework of the classical linear sigma model are reported. We also briefly review a formalism which could be useful at the full non-equilibrium quantum field theory ...
متن کاملDileptons from Disoriented Chiral Condensates
Disoriented chiral condensates or long wavelength pionic oscillations and their interaction with the thermal environment can be a significant source of dileptons. We calculate the yield of such dilepton production within the linear sigma model, both in a quantal mean-field treatment and in a semi-classical approximation. We then illustrate the basic features of the dilepton spectrum in a schema...
