Gluon self-energy effect on CFL gap equation

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2010-04-21 v2

Abstract

I investigate the effects of the gluon self-energy in the color-flavor-locked phase of color superconductivity on the value of the gap. The light plasmon modes, which appear for energies smaller than twice the gap energy, provide the largest contribution. They modify the subsubleading term in the solution of the gap equation.
