Interplay between inhomogeneous chiral and crystalline color-superconducting phases in the two-flavor NJL model

Chengfu Mu, Hosein Gholami, Michael Buballa

We study the interplay between the chiral density wave (CDW) and the single-plane-wave Larkin-Ovchinnikov-Fulde-Ferrell (LOFF) phase of color-superconducting matter in two-flavor q…

Neutrino absorption in two-flavor color-superconducting quark matter

Mark G. Alford, Liam Brodie, Michael Buballa +3

We calculate the absorption mean free paths of electron and muon neutrinos in two-flavor color-superconducting (2SC) quark matter in the density and temperature range that is relev…

Removing cutoff artifacts in the NJL model by a Renormalization Group consistent treatment

Hosein Gholami, Marco Hofmann, Michael Buballa

We summarize how a renormalization-group (RG)-consistent treatment removes well-known artifacts in NJL-model descriptions of color-superconducting quark matter. We introduce two RG…

Renormalizing the Quark-Meson-Diquark Model

Hosein Gholami, Lennart Kurth, Ugo Mire +2

We present a comprehensive study of the two-flavor Quark--Meson--Diquark (QMD) model by comparing a renormalization approach with a renormalization-group (RG) consistent mean-field…

Renormalization-group consistent treatment of color superconductivity in the NJL model

Hosein Gholami, Marco Hofmann, Michael Buballa

The Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model and specifically its extension to color superconductivity (CSC) is a popular effective model for investigating dense quark matter. However, the r…
