QCD at finite temperature and chemical potential from Dyson-Schwinger equations
Christian S. Fischer
We review results for the phase diagram of QCD, the properties of quarks and gluons and the resulting properties of strongly interacting matter at finite temperature and chemical p…
Electromagnetic decays of the neutral pion
Esther Weil, Gernot Eichmann, Christian S. Fischer +1
We complement studies of the neutral pion transition form factor pi^0 --> gamma^(*) gamma^(*) with calculations for the electromagnetic decay widths of the processes pi^0 --> e^+ e…
On the large-Q^2 behavior of the pion transition form factor
Gernot Eichmann, Christian S. Fischer, Esther Weil +1
We study the transition of non-perturbative to perturbative QCD in situations with possible violations of scaling limits. To this end we consider the singly- and doubly-virtual pio…
Baryons with functional methods
Christian S. Fischer
We summarise recent results on the spectrum of ground-state and excited baryons and their form factors in the framework of functional methods. As an improvement upon similar approa…
Baryons as relativistic three-quark bound states
Gernot Eichmann, Helios Sanchis-Alepuz, Richard Williams +2
We review the spectrum and electromagnetic properties of baryons described as relativistic three-quark bound states within QCD. The composite nature of baryons results in a rich ex…
On light baryons and their excitations
Gernot Eichmann, Christian S. Fischer, Helios Sanchis-Alepuz
We study ground states and excitations of light octet and decuplet baryons within the framework of Dyson-Schwinger and Faddeev equations. We improve upon similar approaches by expl…
The Meissner Effect and Vortex Expulsion in Color-Superconducting Quark stars, and its Role for Re-heating of Magnetars
Brian Niebergal, Rachid Ouyed, Rodrigo Negreiros +1
Compact stars made of quark matter rather than confined hadronic matter, are expected to form a color superconductor. This superconductor ought to be threaded with rotational vorte…
