We study QCD with two colors and quarks in the fundamental representation at finite baryon density in the limit of light quark masses. In this limit the free energy of this theory reduces to the free energy of a chiral Lagrangian which is…
The properties of cold and dense quark matter have been the subject of extensive investigation, especially in the last decade. Unfortunately, we still lack of a complete understanding of the properties of matter in these conditions. One…
We investigate the phase structure of 3-flavor QCD in the presence of finite quark chemical potential by using Wilson-Clover fermions. To deal with the complex action with finite density, we adopt the phase reweighting method. In order to…
With a view to exploring a new kind of phase transition in the process of hadronization of quark-gluon plasma (QGP) we investigate the occurrence of pentaquark baryons and tetraquark mesons in the system. For this purpose, the frame work of…
Deconfined quark matter at asymptotically high densities is weakly coupled, due to the asymptotic freedom of Quantum Chromodynamics. In this weak-coupling regime, bulk thermodynamic properties of quark matter, assuming a trivial ground…
Recently we have made considerable progress in our understanding of the behavior of QCD in extreme conditions of high temperature or large baryon number density. Among the highlights are the prediction of a well-characterized true critical…
At sufficiently high baryon density, a quark matter is expected to become a color superconductor because of the pairing forces mediated by gluons. The theoretical aspect of this novel phase of the strong interaction is reviewed with the…
In this conference proceeding, I discuss in detail the deconfinement to quark matter that takes place at large densities and/or temperatures. The first-order phase transition that is assumed to appear beyond a critical point gives rise to…
We present some results obtained by applying the chaos theory on the numerical study of one threedimensional, relativistic, many-body quark system. The asymptotic freedom property is introduced by employing a harmonic term in the…
In nucleus-nucleus collisions at ultra-relativistic energies matter is formed with initial energy density significantly exceeding the critical energy density for the transition from hadronic to partonic matter. We will review the…
Quarkyonic matter is a new phase of QCD at finite temperature and density which is distinct from the confined and de-confined phases. Its existence is unambiguously argued in the large number of colors limit in QCD. Hints of its existence…
We investigate the temperature and density dependence of the color flux tube structure of dense two-color QCD with $N_f = 2$ Wilson fermions by using a lattice simulation. From Refs. [1] and [2], we have already clarified the rich phase…
We consider the variation of the strange quark-chemical potential in the phase diagramme of nuclear matter, employing the order parameters and mass-scaled partition functions in each domain and enforcing flavour conservation. Assuming the…
We investigate the hadronic cooling of a quark droplet within a microscopic model. The color flux tube approach is used to describe the hadronization of the quark phase. The model reproduces experimental particle ratios equally well…
We present a study of hybrid neutron stars with color superconducting quark matter cores at finite temperature that results in sequences of stars with constant entropy per baryon, $s/n_B={\rm const}$. For the quark matter equation of state,…
We study weak interactions involving Goldstone bosons in the neutral kaon condensed phase of color flavor locked quark matter. We calculate the rates for the dominant processes that contribute to the neutrino mean free p ath and to neutrino…
The phase transition from hadronic to quark matter may take place already during the early post-bounce stage of core collapse supernovae when matter is still hot and lepton rich. If the phase transition is of first order and exhibits a…
Nuclear matter is modeled directly in terms of its constituent quarks. A many-body string-flip potential is used that confines quarks within hadrons, enables the hadrons to separate without generating van der Waals forces, and is symmetric…
We show that within a recently developed nonlocal chiral quark model the critical density for a phase transition to color superconducting quark matter under neutron star conditions can be low enough for these phases to occur in compact star…
We explore the out-of-equilibrium dynamics of the Quark-Gluon Plasma at zero and finite net-baryon density based on an effective kinetic theory of Quantum Chromo Dynamics (QCD). By investigating the isotropization of the longitudinal…
