Topological skyrmion phases of matter

Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 2023
Abstract We introduce topological phases of matter defined by skyrmions in the ground state spin—or pseudospin—expectation value textures in the Brillouin zone, the chiral and helical topological skyrmion phases of matter. These phases are protected by a symmetry present in centrosymmetric superconductors.

Catalysis of partial chiral symmetry restoration by Delta matter [PDF]

, 2017
We study the phase structure of dense hadronic matter including $\Delta(1232)$ as well as N(939) based on the parity partner structure, where the baryons have their chiral partners with a certain amount of chiral invariant masses.

Thermodynamic determination of the equilibrium first-order phase-transition line hidden by hysteresis in a phase diagram

Scientific Reports, 2023
In some materials exhibiting field-induced first-order transitions (FOTs), the equilibrium phase-transition line is hidden by the hysteresis region associated with the FOT.

Unlocking Color and Flavor in Superconducting Strange Quark Matter [PDF]

, 1999
We explore the phase diagram of strongly interacting matter with massless u and d quarks as a function of the strange quark mass m_s and the chemical potential mu for baryon number.

The Minimal CFL-Nuclear Interface [PDF]

, 2001
At nuclear matter density, electrically neutral strongly interacting matter in weak equilibrium is made of neutrons, protons and electrons. At sufficiently high density, such matter is made of up, down and strange quarks in the color-flavor locked phase,

Effects of density-dependent quark mass on phase diagram of three-flavor quark matter

, 2005
Considering the density dependence of quark mass, we investigate the phase transition between the (unpaired) strange quark matter and the color-flavor-locked matter, which are supposed to be two candidates for the ground state of strongly interacting ...

Neutron matter - Quark matter phase transition and Quark star

, 1993
We consider the neutron matter quark matter phase transition along with possible existence of hybrid quark stars. The equation of state for neutron matter is obtained using a nonperturbative method with pion dressing of the neutron matter and an analysis

Mapping the QCD Phase Transition with Accreting Compact Stars [PDF]

, 2008
We discuss an idea for how accreting millisecond pulsars could contribute to the understanding of the QCD phase transition in the high-density nuclear matter equation of state (EoS). It is based on two ingredients, the first one being a ``phase diagram''

Core collapse supernovae in the QCD phase diagram

, 2011
We compare two classes of hybrid equations of state with a hadron-to-quark matter phase transition in their application to core collapse supernova simulations.

Plasmodium falciparum gametogenesis essential protein 1 (GEP1) is a transmission‐blocking target

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study shows Plasmodium falciparum GEP1 is vital for activating sexual stages of malarial parasites even independently of a mosquito factor. Knockout parasites completely fail gamete formation even when a phosphodiesterase inhibitor is added. Two single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (V241L and S263P) are found in 12%–20% of field samples.
