First Order Quark-Gluon/Hadron Transition May Affect Cosmological Nucleosynthesis

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-28 v1

Abstract

In the model of a first order quark-gluon/hadron phase transition in which the hadronic phase is considered as vacuum bubbles growing in the quark-gluon background with chiral symmetry broken inside the bubble, we find the estimate for the length scale associated with inhomogeneities originated during the transition, 1010 m   <<40\;\stackrel{<}{\sim }\ell \stackrel{<}{\sim }40 m, being sufficient to produce significant effects on cosmological nucleosynthesis.
