Rare hyperon yields such as the Omega and AntiOmega in heavy ion collision experiments are hard to be reproduced by numerical models. This, in combination with the thermal fit to SPS data, seems to call for a new production mechanism beyond…
Topologically nontrivial time-dependent solutions of the classical nonlinear sigma model are studied as candidates of the disoriented chiral condensate (DCC) in 3+1 dimensions. Unlike the analytic solutions so far discussed, these solutions…
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…
By using a dynamical transport code we show that chirally disoriented domains might survive the hadronization phase in a central relativistic heavy ion collision. A successful measurement of such domains after freeze-out will depend on the…
MiniMax (Fermilab T-864) was a small test/experiment at the Tevatron designed to search for disoriented chiral condensates (DCC) in the forward direction. The MiniMax detector at the C0 collision region of the Tevatron was a telescope of 24…
Relativistic heavy ion collisions can generate metastable domains in which the chiral condensate is disoriented. Nucleus-sized domains can yield measurable fluctuations in the number of neutral and charged pions. We propose a scenario in…
Theoretical speculations and experimental data suggesting the possibility of observing disoriented chiral condensates at a Full Acceptance Detector are reviewed.
Using the influence functional formalism, classical equations of motion for the O(N) model are derived in the presence of a heat bath, in both the symmetric phase as well as the phase of spontaneously broken symmetry. The heat bath leads to…
A small test/experiment has been performed at the Fermilab Collider to measure charged particle and photon multiplicities in the forward direction, $\eta \approx 4.1$. The primary goal is to search for disoriented chiral condensate (DCC).…
Rajagopal and Wilczek have proposed that relativistic nuclear collisions can generate domains in which the chiral condensate is disoriented. If sufficiently large ({\it i.e.} nucleus sized), such domains can yield measurable fluctuations in…
We speculate that, in very high energy hadronic collisions, large fireballs may be produced with interiors which have anomalous chiral order parameters. Such a process would result in radiation of pions with distinctive momentum and isospin…
After the first predictions in seventies that in dense nuclear matter, for example, in neutron stars there could be pion condensation phenomenon, it was shown that at least s-wave pion condensation is unlikely to occur in such a medium in…
Anomalous event-by-event fluctuations of the relative yields of neutral (K$^0_s$) and charged kaon (K$^\pm$) have been predicted to yield a signature for the formation of Disoriented Chiral Condensate (DCC) in relativistic heavy-ion…
No conventional picture of nucleus-nucleus collisions has yet been able to explain the abundance of Omega and anti-Omega hyperons in central collisions between Pb nuclei at 158 A GeV at the CERN SPS. We argue that this is evidence that they…
First, the chiral phase transition at nonzero temperature and baryon chemical potential is studied at mean field level in the sigma model that includes quark degrees of freedom explicitly. For small bare quark masses the critical point…
The idea that a bubble of misaligned vacuum is sometimes produced in high-energy collisions is reviewed.
Enhancement of omega and antiomega baryon production in Pb+Pb collisions at a c.m. energy of 17 A GeV can be explained by the formation of many small disoriented chiral condensate regions. This explanation implies that neutral and charged…
The probability distribution of a neutral pion fraction from independent domains of disoriented chiral condensate is characterized. The signal for the condensate is still clear for a large number of independent domains if one of them is…
A momentum-dependent formulation based on a stationary spin-0 and isospin-1 dibaryon field is proposed to improve convergence of chiral effective field theory in the $\cs{1}{0}$ channel of $NN$ scattering. Although the two-parameter…
Using a semi-classical treatment of the linear sigma model, we simulate the dynamical evolution of an initially hot cylindrical rod endowed with a longitudinal Bjorken scaling expansion (a ``Bjorken rod''). The field equation is propagated…
