Basic Treatment of QCD Phase Transition Bubble Nucleation
arXiv:hep-ph/0503157 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.71.065017
Abstract
Starting from the QCD Lagrangian and the surface tension of QCD bubbles we derive the critical size of bubbles, the nucleation probability and the nucleation site separation distance. We find the separation of sites is more than an order of magnitude larger than previous QCD model estimates, which could lead to observable effects.
