Quarkyonic percolation in dense nuclear matter

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2012-11-22 v1 Nuclear Theory

Abstract

We examine the phase diagram of hadronic matter when the number of colours NcN_c, as well as temperature and density, are varied. We show that in this regime a new percolation phase transition is possible, and examine the implications of this transition for extrapolations to physical QCD of the large-N_c limit.
