Dynamics of semi-superfluid fluxtubes in color-flavor locked quark matter
Mark G. Alford, Andreas Windisch
At very high densities, as for example in the core of a neutron star, matter may appear in the color-flavor locked (CFL) phase, which is a superfluid. This phase features topologic…
Vortex structure in superfluid color-flavor locked quark matter
Mark G. Alford, S. Kumar Mallavarapu, Tanmay Vachaspati +1
The core region of a neutron star may feature quark matter in the color-flavor- locked (CFL) phase. The CFL condensate breaks the baryon number symmetry, such that the phenomenon o…
Stability of superfluid vortices in dense quark matter
Mark G. Alford, S. Kumar Mallavarapu, Tanmay Vachaspati +1
Superfluid vortices in the color-flavor-locked (CFL) phase of dense quark matter are known to be energetically disfavored relative to well-separated triplets of "semi-superfluid" c…
