Complex spectrum of spin models for finite-density QCD
Hiromichi Nishimura, Michael Ogilvie, Kamal Pangeni
We consider the spectrum of transfer matrix eigenvalues associated with Polyakov loops in lattice QCD at strong coupling. The transfer matrix at finite density is non-Hermitian, an…
Gap-bridging enhancement of modified Urca processes in nuclear matter
Mark G. Alford, Kamal Pangeni
In nuclear matter at neutron-star densities and temperatures, Cooper pairing leads to the formation of a gap in the nucleon excitation spectra resulting in exponentially strong Bol…
Complex Saddle Points and Disorder Lines in QCD at finite temperature and density
Hiromichi Nishimura, Michael C. Ogilvie, Kamal Pangeni
The properties and consequences of complex saddle points are explored in phenomenological models of QCD at non-zero temperature and density. Such saddle points are a consequence of…
