Spectrum of the open QCD flux tube and its effective string description
Bastian B. Brandt
I perform a high precision measurement of the static quark-antiquark potential in three-dimensional gauge theory with to 6. The results are compared to the effe…
QCD at nonzero isospin asymmetry
Bastian B. Brandt, Gergely Endrodi, Sebastian Schmalzbauer
We study the phase diagram and the thermodynamic properties of QCD at nonzero isospin asymmetry at physical quark masses with staggered quarks. In particular, continuum results for…
Reliability of Taylor expansions in QCD
Bastian B. Brandt, Gergely Endrodi
We investigate the reliability of the Taylor expansion method in QCD with isospin chemical potentials using lattice simulations. By comparing the expansion of the number density to…
Weak decay of magnetized pions
Gunnar S. Bali, Bastian B. Brandt, Gergely Endrodi +1
The leptonic decay of charged pions is investigated in the presence of background magnetic fields. In this situation Lorentz symmetry is broken and new fundamental decay constants…
New class of compact stars: Pion stars
Bastian B. Brandt, Gergely Endrodi, Eduardo S. Fraga +3
We investigate the viability of a new type of compact star whose main constituent is a Bose-Einstein condensate of charged pions. Several different setups are considered, where a g…
