Confinement Phenomena in Topological Stars

Abstract

Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) is the fundamental theory describing the strong nuclear force and the interactions among quarks and gluons. Topological stars, characterized by extreme density conditions, offer a unique environment where QCD phenomena play a crucial role due to the confinement of fundamental particles. Understanding these phenomena is essential for unraveling the behavior and properties of these celestial bodies. In this study, we explore the implications of QCD within extreme density regimes, focusing on its contribution to the energy-momentum tensor ($T_{\text{QCD}}^{\mu \nu }$) within the framework of Quantum Chromodynamics. Our analysis sheds light on how these QCD effects influence the fabric of spacetime in the vicinity of topological stars, providing valuable insights into their underlying physics.

This is a paper exploring the implications of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) within extreme density regimes. It has 11 Pages, 6 figures. This study was done during my sophomore year, spanning 2022-23
