We describe the low energy excitations of the diquark condensates in the color-flavor locked phase of QCD with three massless flavors, at high baryon densities, in terms of a non-linear effective lagrangian. Such a lagrangian is formally…
We report on fits of the $SU(3)$ $N_f=8$ LSD spectral data to chiral perturbation theory with a dilatonic meson. These fits confirm that current simulations are in the "large-mass" regime, with approximate hyperscaling as the leading mass…
We show that the quark (not nucleon) based chiral linear $\sigma$ model which receives strong support as a mean field theory for the strong interactions can actually be made asymptotically free by coupling to gluons. It has the further…
