Abstract

The high density effective theory formalism (HDET) is employed to describe high density QCD with two massive flavors (2SC). The gap equation is derived and explicitly solved for the gap parameter. The parameters associated to the pseudo Nambu-Goldstone boson of U(1)AU(1)_A are evaluated in the limit μ\mu\to\infty and m/μm/\mu fixed. In particular we find for the velocity of the NG boson the relation v2=μ12m12μ22m22/3μ1μ2v^2=\sqrt{\mu_1^2-m_1^2}\sqrt{\mu_2^2-m_2^2}/3\mu_1\mu_2.
