Non-Abelian Strings in Hot or Dense QCD
Eiji Nakano, Muneto Nitta, Taeko Matsuura
Different types of non-Abelian vortex-strings appear in dense or hot QCD, both of which possess non-Abelian internal orientation zero modes. We calculate the interaction between th…
Non-Abelian Strings in High Density QCD: Zero Modes and Interactions
Eiji Nakano, Muneto Nitta, Taeko Matsuura
The most fundamental strings in high density color superconductivity are the non-Abelian semi-superfluid strings which have color gauge flux tube but behave as superfluid vortices…
Interactions of Non-Abelian Global Strings
Eiji Nakano, Muneto Nitta, Taeko Matsuura
Non-Abelian global strings are expected to form during the chiral phase transition. They have orientational zero modes in the internal space, associated with the vector-like symmet…
Semi-superfluid strings in High Density QCD
A. P. Balachandran, S. Digal, T. Matsuura
We show that topological superfluid strings/vortices with flux tubes exist in the color-flavor locked (CFL) phase of color superconductors. Using a Ginzburg-Landau free energy we f…
Thermal Phase Transitions and Gapless Quark Spectra in Quark Matter at High Density
K. Iida, T. Matsuura, M. Tachibana +1
Thermal color superconducting phase transitions in three-flavor quark matter at high baryon density are investigated in the Ginzburg-Landau (GL) approach. We constructed the GL pot…
Melting Pattern of Diquark Condensates in Quark Matter
K. Iida, T. Matsuura, M. Tachibana +1
Thermal color superconducting phase transitions in high density three-flavor quark matter are investigated in the Ginzburg-Landau approach. Effects of nonzero strange quark mass, e…
