Limit on Quark-Antiquark Mass Difference from the Neutral Kaon System
Michael J. Fromerth, Johann Rafelski
We quantify the limits on quark-antiquark mass differences imposed by the neutral kaon mass system. In particular, we find that an upper limit to the mass difference of 10^{-3} eV…
Variation of Fine Structure Constant from Non-Universal Gravity
Johann Rafelski
We relate the reported variation in the value of the fine structure constant to a possible non-universality of the gravitational interaction with respect to different particle gene…
Strangeness and QGP freeze-out dynamics
Johann Rafelski, Giorgio Torrieri, Jean Letessier
We compare chemical and thermal analysis of the SPS Pb--Pb results at GeV, and present a first chemical analysis of RHIC results. We show how a combined analysis of several…
Free Energy of a Hot Quark-Gluon Plasma
Salah Hamieh, Jean Letessier, Johann Rafelski +2
Thermal (Th-)QCD properties appear to disagree with lattice (L-)QCD results, which suggests that Th-QCD does not have a valid perturbative expansion. However, we reproduce L-QCD us…
Hadron Freeze-out and QGP Hadronization
Johann Rafelski, Jean Letessier
Abundances and -spectra of strange and other hadronic particles emanating from central 158-200 A GeV reactions between nuclei are found to originate from a thermally equili…
Interfering QCD/QED Vacuum Polarization
H. -Th. Elze, B. Müller, J. Rafelski
Vacuum polarization mediated by quark loops is susceptible to external electromagnetic fields as well as to the QCD vacuum structure. Employing the stochastic vacuum model, we calc…
