本文给出了一种计算有限化学势零温下量子色动力学(QCD)的配分函数进而计算状态方程的直接方法。在本文导出的状态方程中,压力密度是两项之和:第一项${\cal P}(μ)|_{μ=0}$(在$μ=0$处的压力密度)是一个与$μ$无关的常数;第二项完全由$G_R[μ](p)$(在有限$μ$处的重整化缀饰夸克传播子)决定,包含所有非平凡的$μ$依赖性。应用我们在以前的研究[Phys. Rev. { \bf C 71},015205(2005)]中得到的Dyson-Schwinger方法的彩虹阶梯近似的一般结果,从[Phys. Rev.{\bf D 70},014014(2004)]中提出的亚纯夸克传播子计算了$G_R[μ](p)$.由此得到了在有限$μ$和零$T$下QCD状态方程的完整解析表达式(除了常数项${\cal P}(μ)|_{μ=0}$,它原则上可由CJT有效作用量计算)。将我们的状态方程与Fraga,Pisarski和Schaffner-Bielich的QCD冷微扰状态方程作了比较。期望我们的物态方程能为中子星的研究提供一种可能的新途径。
英文摘要:
In this paper, we give a direct method for calculating the partition function, and hence the equation of state (EOS) of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) at finite chemical potential and zero temperature. In the EOS derived in this paper the pressure density is the sum of two terms: the first term ${\cal P}(μ)|_{μ=0}$ (the pressure density at $μ=0$) is a $μ$-independent constant; the second term, which is totally determined by $G_R[μ](p)$ (the renormalized dressed quark propagator at finite $μ$), contains all the nontrivial $μ$-dependence. By applying a general result in the rainbow-ladder approximation of the Dyson-Schwinger approach obtained in our previous study [Phys. Rev. {\bf C 71}, 015205 (2005)], $G_R[μ](p)$ is calculated from the meromorphic quark propagator proposed in [Phys. Rev. {\bf D 70}, 014014 (2004)]. From this the full analytic expression of the EOS of QCD at finite $μ$ and zero $T$ is obtained (apart from the constant term ${\cal P}(μ)|_{μ=0}$ which can in principle be calculated from the CJT effective action). A comparison between our EOS and the cold, perturbative EOS of QCD of Fraga, Pisarski and Schaffner-Bielich is made. It is expected that our EOS can provide a possible new approach for the study of neutron stars.
The self-consistent mean field approximation of two-flavor NJL model with introducing a free parameter $α$ to reflect the competition between "direct" channel and the "exchange" channel, is employed to study QCD phase structure at finite isospin chemical potential $μ_I$, finite baryon chemical potential $μ_B$ and finite temperature $T$, especially the location of the QCD critical point. It is found that, for fixed isospin chemical potentials the lower temperature of phase transition is obtained with $α$ increasing in the $T-μ_I$ plane, and the largest difference of the phase transition tempera…
We study thermalization, hydrodynamization, and chemical equilibration in out-of-equilibrium Quark-Gluon Plasma starting from various initial conditions using QCD effective kinetic theory, valid at weak coupling. In non-expanding systems gauge bosons rapidly lose information of the initial state and achieve kinetic equilibrium among themselves, while fermions approach the equilibrium distribution only at later time. In systems undergoing rapid longitudinal expansion, both gluons and quarks are kept away from equilibrium by the expansion, but the evolution is well described by fluid dynamics ev…
We investigate the QCD phase diagram for small values of baryon and strange quark chemical potentials from simulations at non-zero isospin chemical potential. Simulations at pure isospin chemical potential are not hindered by the sign problem and pion condensation can be observed for sufficiently large isospin chemical potentials. We study how the related phase boundary evolves with baryonic and strange chemical potentials via reweighting in quark chemical potentials and discuss our results. Furthermore, we propose and implement an alternative method to approach nonzero baryon (and strange qua…
Constraining the QCD phase diagram by tricritical lines at imaginary chemical potential
我们从QCD的晶格模拟中得到了三种简并夸克在(T,m)相图中两个三临界点的明确证据,其中一个在轻质量区,另一个在重质量区,虚质量μ/T=iπ/3 mod 2π/3是固定的.这些代表的边界的手性和decenclosure临界线继续虚化学势,分别。结果表明,实化学势解禁闭临界线的形状是由三临界标度决定的,并意味着实化学势解禁闭跃迁的减弱.讨论了非简并夸克质量和轻夸克质量的推广。
Recent lattice QCD calculations strongly indicate that the chiral crossover of QCD at zero baryon chemical potential μ_B is a remnant of the second-order chiral phase transition. Universal properties of this second-order phase transition can be mapped to QCD temperature T and μ_B using non-universal parameters determined by lattice QCD recently. Motivated by these results, first, we discuss the analytic structure of the partition function in the QCD crossover regime - the so-called Yang-Lee edge singularity - solely based on universal properties. Next, utilizing the lattice QCD results for non…
We review results for the phase diagram of QCD, the properties of quarks and gluons and the resulting properties of strongly interacting matter at finite temperature and chemical potential. The interplay of two different but related transitions in QCD, chiral symmetry restoration and deconfinement, leads to a rich phenomenology when external parameters such as quark masses, volume, temperature and chemical potential are varied. We discuss the progress in this field from a theoretical perspective, focusing on non-perturbative QCD as encoded in the functional approach via Dyson-Schwinger and Bet…
We review the equation of state of QCD matter at finite densities. We discuss the construction of the equation of state with net baryon number, electric charge, and strangeness using the results of lattice QCD simulations and hadron resonance gas models. Its application to the hydrodynamic analyses of relativistic nuclear collisions suggests that the interplay of multiple conserved charges is important in the quantitative understanding of the dense nuclear matter created at lower beam energies. Several different models of the QCD equation of state are discussed for comparison.
We give a further study on the improved soft-wall AdS/QCD model with two flavors. The chiral transition behaviors are studied in the case of finite chemical potential, with the chiral phase diagram obtained at zero quark mass. The thermal spectral functions of the vector and axial-vector mesons are calculated, and the in-medium melting properties of the mesons are investigated. We find that the chiral transition behaviors and the meson melting properties at finite chemical potential can be qualitatively described by the improved soft-wall AdS/QCD model, except in the region of large chemical p…
