A new approach to dark matter from the mass-radius diagram of the Universe
Aldo Ianni, Massimo Mannarelli, Nicola Rossi
Modern cosmology successfully deals with the origin and the evolution of the Universe at large scales, but it is unable to completely answer the question about the nature of the fu…
Inhomogeneous pion condensed phase hosting topologically stable baryons
Massimo Mannarelli, Fabrizio Canfora, Stefano Carignano +2
We discuss the inhomogeneous pion condensed phase within the framework of chiral perturbation theory. We show how the general expression of the condensate can be obtained solving t…
Pion crystals hosting topologically stable baryons
Fabrizio Canfora, Stefano Carignano, Marcela Lagos +2
We construct analytic (3+1)-dimensional inhomogeneous and topologically non-trivial pion systems using chiral perturbation theory. We discuss the effect of isospin asymmetry with v…
Meson condensation
Massimo Mannarelli
We give a pedagogical review of the properties of the various meson condensation phases triggered by a large isospin or strangeness imbalance. We argue that these phases are extrem…
Multicomponent meson superfluids in chiral perturbation theory
Luca Lepori, Massimo Mannarelli
We show that the multicomponent meson systems can be described by chiral perturbation theory. We chiefly focus on a system of two pion gases at different isospin chemical potential…
The improved Ginzburg-Landau technique
Massimo Mannarelli
We discuss an innovative method for the description of inhomogeneous phases designed to improve the standard Ginzburg-Landau expansion. The method is characterized by two key ingre…
