What do we know about the ground state of the color superconducting phase of QCD? Roberto Casalbuoni Dept. of Physics, University of Florence INFN & GGI - Florence Origin of Mass and Strong Coupling Gauge Theories Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

R. Casalbuoni: What do we… Outline of the talk Introduction Pairing fermions with different Fermi momenta The gapless phase gCFL The LOFF phase Results about the LOFF phase with 3 flavors Astrophysical consequences (if enough time) Conclusions and outlook Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

R. Casalbuoni: What do we… Introduction Motivations for the study of high-density QCD Understanding the interior of CSO’s Study of the QCD phase diagram at T~ 0 and moderate m Asymptotic region in m fairly well understood: existence of a CS phase. Real question: does this type of phase persist at relevant densities (~5-6 r0)? Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

Pairing fermions with different Fermi momenta Ms not zero Neutrality with respect to em and color Weak equilibrium no free energy cost in neutral singlet, (Amore et al. 2003) All these effects make Fermi momenta of different fermions unequal causing problems to the BCS pairing mechanism Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

Effective chemical potential for the massive quark Consider 2 fermions with m1 = M, m2 = 0 at the same chemical potential m. The Fermi momenta are Effective chemical potential for the massive quark M2/2 effective chemical potential Mismatch: Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

R. Casalbuoni: What do we… If electrons are present, weak equilibrium makes chemical potentials of quarks of different charges unequal: From this: with N.B. me is not a free parameter: neutrality requires: Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

Neutrality and β equilibrium Non interacting quarks If the strange quark is massless this equation has solution Nu = Nd = Ns , Ne = 0; quark matter electrically neutral with no electrons Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

R. Casalbuoni: What do we… By taking into account Ms Fermi surfaces for neutral and color singlet unpaired quark matter at the  equilibrium and Ms not zero. In the normal phase 3 = 8 = 0. Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

R. Casalbuoni: What do we… As long as dm is small no effects on BCS pairing, but when increased the BCS pairing is lost and two possibilities arise: The system goes back to the normal phase Other phases can be formed Notice that there are also color neutrality conditions Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

R. Casalbuoni: What do we… In a simple model without supplementary conditions, with two fermions at chemical potentials m1 and m2, the system becomes normal at the Chandrasekhar - Clogston point. Another unstable phase exists. Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

R. Casalbuoni: What do we… The point |dm| = D is special. In the presence of a mismatch new features are present. The spectrum of quasiparticles is For |dm| < D, the gaps are D - dm and D + dm For |dm| = D, an unpairing (blocking) region opens up and gapless modes are present (relevant in astrophysical applications) Energy cost for pairing begins to unpair Energy gained in pairing Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

(Alford, Kouvaris & Rajagopal, 2005) gCFL The case of 3 flavors (Alford, Kouvaris & Rajagopal, 2005) Different phases are characterized by different values for the gaps. For instance (but many other possibilities exist) Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

R. Casalbuoni: What do we… -1 +1 ru gd bs rd gu rs bu gs bd Gaps in gCFL Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

R. Casalbuoni: What do we… Strange quark mass effects: Shift of the chemical potential for the strange quarks: Color and electric neutrality in CFL requires The transition CFL to gCFL starts with the unpairing of the pair ds with (close to the transition) Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

R. Casalbuoni: What do we… It follows: Energy cost for pairing begins to unpair Energy gained in pairing Calculations within a NJL model (modelled on one-gluon exchange): Write the free energy: Solve: Neutrality Gap equations Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

(Alford, Kouvaris & Rajagopal, 2005) CFL # gCFL 2nd order transition at Ms2/m ~ 2D, when the pairing ds starts breaking (Alford, Kouvaris & Rajagopal, 2005) (0 = 25 MeV,  = 500 MeV) Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

R. Casalbuoni: What do we… gCFL has gapless quasiparticles, and there are gluon imaginary masses also in this phase (RC et al. 2004, Fukushima 2005). Instability present also in g2SC (Huang & Shovkovy 2004; Alford & Wang 2005) Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

Solving the chromomagnetic instability Gluon condensation. Assuming artificially <A 3> or <A 8> not zero (of order 10 MeV) this can be done (RC et al. 2004) . In g2SC the chromomagnetic instability can be cured by a chromo-magnetic condensate (Gorbar, Hashimoto, Miransky, 2005 & 2006; Kiriyama, Rischke, Shovkovy, 2006) . Rotational symmetry is broken and this makes a connection with the inhomogeneous LOFF phase (see later). At the moment no extension to the three flavor case. Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

R. Casalbuoni: What do we… CFL-K0 phase. When the stress is not too large (high density) the CFL pattern might be modified by a flavor rotation of the condensate equivalent to a condensate of K0 mesons (Bedaque, Schafer 2002). This occurs for ms > m1/3 2/3. Also in this phase gapless modes are present and the gluonic instability arises (Kryjevski, Schafer 2005, Kryjevski, Yamada 2005). With a space dependent condensate a current can be generated which resolves the instability. Again some relations with the LOFF phase. No extension to the three flavor case. Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

R. Casalbuoni: What do we… Single flavor pairing. If the stress is too big single flavor pairing could occur but the gap is generally too small. It could be important at low  before the nuclear phase (see for instance Alford 2006) Secondary pairing. The gapless modes could pair forming a secondary gap, but the gap is far too small (Huang, Shovkovy, 2003; Hong 2005; Alford, Wang, 2005) Mixed phases of nuclear and quark matter (Alford, Rajagopal, Reddy, Wilczek, 2001) as well as mixed phases between different CS phases, have been found either unstable or energetically disfavored (Neumann, Buballa, Oertel, 2002; Alford, Kouvaris, Rajagopal, 2004). Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

This makes the LOFF phase very interesting Chromomagnetic instability of g2SC makes the crystalline phase (LOFF) with two flavors energetically favored (Giannakis & Ren 2004), also there are no chromomagnetic instability although it has gapless modes (Giannakis & Ren 2005), however see talk by Hashimoto. This makes the LOFF phase very interesting Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

R. Casalbuoni: What do we… LOFF phase LOFF (Larkin, Ovchinnikov, Fulde & Ferrel, 1964): ferromagnetic alloy with paramagnetic impurities. The impurities produce a constant exchange field acting upon the electron spin giving rise to an effective difference in the chemical potentials of the opposite spin producing a mismatch of the Fermi momenta Studied also in the QCD context (Alford, Bowers & Rajagopal, 2000) Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

R. Casalbuoni: What do we… According to LOFF, close to first order point (CC point), possible condensation with non zero total momentum More generally fixed variationally chosen spontaneously Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

The qi’s define the crystal pointing at its vertices. Single plane wave: Also in this case, for an unpairing (blocking) region opens up and gapless modes are present More general possibilities include a crystalline structure (Larkin & Ovchinnikov 1964, Bowers & Rajagopal 2002) The qi’s define the crystal pointing at its vertices. Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

R. Casalbuoni: What do we… Small window. Opens up in QCD? (Leibovich, Rajagopal & Shuster 2001; Giannakis, Liu & Ren 2002) Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

Preliminary results about LOFF with three flavors Recent study of LOFF with 3 flavors within the following simplifying hypothesis (RC, Gatto, Ippolito, Nardulli & Ruggieri, 2005) Study within the Landau-Ginzburg approximation. Only electrical neutrality imposed (chemical potentials 3 and 8 taken equal to zero). Ms treated as in gCFL. Pairing similar to gCFL with inhomogeneity in terms of simple plane waves, as for the simplest LOFF phase. Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

R. Casalbuoni: What do we… A further simplifications is to assume only the following geometrical configurations for the vectors qI, I=1,2,3 (a more general angular dependence will be considered in future work) 1 2 3 4 The free energy, in the GL expansion, has the form with coefficients I, I and IJ calculable from an effective NJL four-fermi interaction simulating one-gluon exchange Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

R. Casalbuoni: What do we… Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

R. Casalbuoni: What do we… We require: At the lowest order in I since I depends only on qI and i we get the same result as in the usual LOFF case: In the GL approximation we expect to be pretty close to the normal phase, therefore we will assume 3 = 8 = 0. At the same order we expect 2 = 3 (equal mismatch) and 1 = 0 (ds mismatch is twice the ud and us). Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

R. Casalbuoni: What do we… Once assumed  1 = 0, only two configurations for q2 and q3, parallel or antiparallel. The antiparallel is disfavored due to the lack of configurations space for the up fermions. Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

R. Casalbuoni: What do we… (we have assumed the same parameters as in Alford et al. in gCFL, 0 = 25 MeV,  = 500 MeV) Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

Comparison with other phases LOFF phase takes over gCFL at about 128 MeV and goes over to the normal phase at about 150 MeV (RC, Gatto, Ippolito, Nardulli, Ruggieri, 2005) Confirmed by an exact solution of the gap equation (Mannarelli, Rajagopal, Sharma, 2006) Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

R. Casalbuoni: What do we… No chromo-magnetic instability in the LOFF phase with three flavors (Ciminale, Gatto, Nardulli, Ruggieri, 2006) Transverse masses Longitudinal masses Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

R. Casalbuoni: What do we… Extension to a crystalline structure (Rajagopal, Sharma 2006), always within the simplifying assumption 1 = 0 and 2 = 3 The sum over the index a goes up to 8 qia. Assuming also 2 = 3 the favored structures (always in the GL approximation up to 6) among 11 structures analyzed are 2Cube45z CubeX Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

R. Casalbuoni: What do we… Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

Specific heat and neutrino emissivity Cv ~ T for electrons and gapless or free quarks; Cv ~ exp(-/T) exponentially suppressed for gapped quarks E = neutrino emissivity E ~ T6 for gapless or free quarks; E ~ T8 for nuclear matter (URCA [beta decay] processes forbidden, modified URCA allowed [n+X->p+X+e+ν]) Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

Casalbuoni: What do we…

Cooling of neutron star Cooling faster for a core made up of unpaired or LOFF-paired quarks (Angiani, Nardulli & Ruggieri, 2006) nm: R ~ 12 KM qm: R1~5 Km, R2~10 Km Nagoya November 21-24, 2006 R. Casalbuoni: What do we…

R. Casalbuoni: What do we… Conclusions The problem of the QCD phases at moderate densities and low temperature is still open. Various phases are competing, many of them having gapless modes. However, when such modes are present a chromomagnetic instability arises. Also the LOFF phase is gapless but the gluon instability does not seem to appear. Recent studies of the LOFF phase with three flavors seem to suggest that this should be the favored phase after CFL, although this study is very much simplified and more careful investigations should be performed.
