Ionization of Binary Bound States in a Strongly Coupled Quark-Gluon Plasma
Edward V. Shuryak, Ismail Zahed
Although at temperatures the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) is a gas of weakly interacting quasiparticles (modulo long-range magnetism), it is strongly interacting (sQGP)…
Periodic Theta Vacuum Model and the QCD Instanton Vacuum
Prashanth Jaikumar, Ismail Zahed
We formulate a toy model for the vacuum that embodies the n-point moments of the even and odd topological charge densities. The partition function is periodic only after r…
Pi0 -> Gamma Gamma in Dense QCD
Maciej A. Nowak, Mannque Rho, Andreas Wirzba +1
QCD superconductors in the color-flavor-locked (CFL) phase support light excitations (generalized pions) in the form of particle-particle or hole-hole excitations. We analyze the g…
Dense QCD : Overhauser or BCS Pairing ?
Byung-Yoon Park, Mannque Rho, Andreas Wirzba +1
We discuss the Overhauser effect (particle-hole pairing) versus the BCS effect (particle-particle or hole-hole pairing) in QCD at large quark density. In weak coupling and to leadi…
Generalized Pions in Dense QCD
Mannque Rho, Andreas Wirzba, Ismail Zahed
QCD superconductors in the color-flavor-locked (CFL) phase sustain light Goldstone modes (that will be referred to as generalized pions) that can be described as pairs of particle…
Vacuum in a Random Matrix Model
Romuald A. Janik, Maciej A. Nowak, Gabor Papp +1
Inspired by recent lattice calculations, we model certain aspects of the -vacuum using a matrix model with gaussian weights. The vacuum energy exhibits a cusp at that is s…
