Goldstone bosons in the color-flavor locked phase

Verena Werth, Michael Buballa, Micaela Oertel

We study pseudoscalar meson excitations in the color-flavor locked phase within a Nambu-Jona-Lasinio-type model by calculating diquark loops.

Quark mass effects on the stability of hybrid stars

M. Buballa, F. Neumann, M. Oertel +1

We perform a study of the possible existence of hybrid stars with color superconducting quark cores using a specific hadronic model in a combination with an NJL-type quark model. I…

Flavor-Mixing Effects on the QCD Phase Diagram at non-vanishing Isospin Chemical Potential: One or Two Phase Transitions?

M. Frank, M. Buballa, M. Oertel

We investigate effects of a fixed nonzero isospin chemical potential on the mu_B-T phase diagram of strongly interacting matter using a Nambu--Jona-Lasinio-type four fermion intera…

Neutron stars and the transition to color-superconducting quark matter

M. Baldo, M. Buballa, G. F. Burgio +3

We explore the relevance of color superconductivity inside a possible quark matter core for the bulk properties of neutron stars. For the quark phase we use an Nambu--Jona-Lasinio…

Mixed phases of color superconducting quark matter

F. Neumann, M. Buballa, M. Oertel

We examine electrically and color neutral quark matter in beta-equilibrium focusing on the possibility of mixed phases between different color superconducting phases. To that end w…

Color-Flavor (Un)locking

M. Oertel, M. Buballa

The structure of the phase diagram of strongly interacting matter at moderate densities is calculated within a 3-flavor NJL-type quark model with realistic quark masses. We focus o…
