Inhomogeneous phases and chiral symmetry breaking
Stefano Carignano, Efrain J. Ferrer, Vivian de la Incera
In the past few years, a growing number of compelling arguments, backed up by model calculations, pointed out that the intermediate-density region of the QCD phase diagram may be c…
Inhomogeneous chiral condensates
Michael Buballa, Stefano Carignano
The chiral condensate, which is constant in vacuum, may become spatially modulated at moderately high densities where in the traditional picture of the QCD phase diagram a first-or…
Inhomogeneous phases in the quark-meson model with vacuum fluctuations
Stefano Carignano, Michael Buballa, Bernd-Jochen Schaefer
Inhomogeneous chiral-symmetry breaking phases at non-vanishing chemical potential and temperature are studied within a two-flavor quark-meson model in the chiral limit. The analysi…
