New look at the QCD ground state in a magnetic field
Efrain J. Ferrer, Vivian de la Incera, Israel Portillo +1
We explore chiral symmetry breaking in a magnetic field within a Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model of interacting massless quarks including tensor channels. We show that the new interaction…
Magnetism in Compact Ultra Dense Objects
Efrain J. Ferrer
This paper summarizes some of the recent results on magnetism in high dense mediums, where the phenomenon of color superconductivity can be present, and its possible implications f…
BEC-BCS Crossover and the EoS of Strongly Interacting Systems
Efrain J. Ferrer
We show that at sufficiently strong coupling, quarks form a BEC system that does not collapse into a pressureless gas at zero temperature only if the diquark-diquark repulsion is s…
Bag vs. NJL models for color-flavor-locked strange quark matter
L Paulucci, E J Ferrer, J E Horvath +1
We compare the mass-radius relationship of strange stars obtained in two theoretical frameworks describing the color-flavor-locking state of dense quark matter: The semi-empirical…
Quarkyonic Chiral Spirals in the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio Approach
Bo Feng, Efrain J. Ferrer, Vivian de la Incera
We explore the inhomogeneous QCD phases at finite density and temperature using a (3+1)-dimensional Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model in the large Nc limit with an additional attracti…
