It is unlikely to reach at high temperatures the state which is used as the starting point of DCC formation in the quenched approximation. The chiral symmetry is restored in the linear sigma model by Goldstone modes (pions), because such…

Evolution of disoriented chiral condenstates is studied with the classical sigma model in 3+1 dimensions. By smoothly connecting a chiral symmetric solution of the formation period to a solution of the decay period, we obtain a complete…
A quantum field theoretical model for the dynamics of the disoriented chiral condensate is presented. A unified approach to relate the quantum field theory directly to the formation, decay and signals of the DCC and its evolution is taken.…
We discuss a dynamical mechanism of pion production from disoriented chiral condensates (DCC). It leads to an explosive production of pions via the parametric amplification mechanism, which is similar to the reheating mechanism in…
Approximate mean-field equations of motion for the classical chiral field are developed within the linear sigma model by means of a Hartree factorization. Both the approximate and the unapproximated equations of motion are augmented with a…
