Gapless phases of color-superconducting matter

Nuclear Theory 2007-05-23 v2 High Energy Physics - Phenomenology

Abstract

We discuss gapless color superconductivity for neutral quark matter in beta equilibrium at zero as well as at nonzero temperature. Basic properties of gapless superconductors are reviewed. The current progress and the remaining problems in the understanding of the phase diagram of strange quark matter are discussed.
