Color Superconductivity
Thomas Schaefer
We discuss recent results on color superconductivity in QCD at large chemical potential.
Color superconductivity: Continuity of quark and hadron matter, the role of the strange quark mass, and perturbative results
Thomas Schaefer
We summarize some recent results on the structure of QCD at very high baryon density.
Patterns of Symmetry Breaking in QCD at High Baryon Density
Thomas Schaefer
We study the structure of QCD at very large baryon density for an arbitrary number of flavors . We provide evidence that for any number of flavors larger than chiral s…
Superconductivity from perturbative one-gluon exchange in high density quark matter
Thomas Schaefer, Frank Wilczek
We study color superconductivity in QCD at asymptotically large chemical potential. In this limit, pairing is dominated by perturbative one-gluon exchange. We derive the Eliashberg…
High Density QCD and Instantons
R. Rapp, T. Schaefer, E. V. Shuryak +1
Instantons generate strong non-perturbative interactions between quarks. In the vacuum, these interactions lead to chiral symmetry breaking and generate constituent quark masses on…
Quark Description of Hadronic Phases
Thomas Schaefer, Frank Wilczek
We extend our proposal that major universality classes of hadronic matter can be understood, and in favorable cases calculated, directly in the microscopic quark variables, to allo…
