Pion Production from Baked-Alaska Disoriented Chiral Condensate [PDF]
Phys.Rev. D56 (1997) 6942-6956, 1997 We study the various stages of the evolution of chiral condensates disoriented via the ``baked-alaska'' mechanism, in which the condensates are described as the products of external sources localized on the light cone. Our analysis is based on the classical equations of motion of either the linear or the nonlinear sigma model.
