Large Scale Inhomogeneities from the QCD Phase Transition
arXiv:hep-ph/9405336 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.50.3738
Abstract
We examine the first-order cosmological QCD phase transition for a large class of parameter values, previously considered unlikely. We find that the hadron bubbles can nucleate at very large distance scales, they can grow as detonations as well as deflagrations, and that the phase transition may be completed without reheating to the critical temperature. For a subset of the parameter values studied, the inhomogeneities generated at the QCD phase transition might have a noticeable effect on nucleosynthesis.
