Dense Baryonic Matter and Applications of QCD Phase Diagram Dualities

Particles, 2020
Recently it has been found that quantum chromodynamics (QCD) phase diagram possesses a duality between chiral symmetry breaking and pion condensation. For the first time this was revealed in the QCD motivated toy model.

Large‐Scale Forest Restoration Accompanied by Biodiversity Recovery in Costa Rica's Redistributive Payment for Ecosystem Service Program

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 2, February 2026.
Transforming recorded sound into meaningful ecological insights requires carefully designed methodologies. This workflow diagram describes the steps of our analysis (contained within circles labeled 1–7), which builds on best practices to correct for potential biases.

The QCD phase diagram: Expectations and Challenges [PDF]

Proceedings of 5th International Workshop on Critical Point and Onset of Deconfinement — PoS(CPOD 2009), 2010
A survey is given of recent QCD theory advances concerning the phase diagram, in particular the indications for a critical point and adjacent first order phase transition at high baryo-chemical potential, and the new ideas concerning a further phase at high $ _{B}$, the quarkyonic matter phase. The latter state might finally explain the hadro-chemical

Quark matter revisited with non extensive MIT bag model

, 2017
In this work we revisit the MIT bag model to describe quark matter within both the usual Fermi-Dirac and the Tsallis statistics. We verify the effects of the non-additivity of the latter by analysing two different pictures: the first order phase ...

Imaginary Chemical Potential Approach for the Pseudo-Critical Line in the QCD Phase Diagram with Clover-Improved Wilson Fermions [PDF]

, 2011
The QCD phase diagram is studied in the lattice QCD simulation with the imaginary chemical potential approach. We employ a clover-improved Wilson fermion action of two-flavors and a renormalization-group improved gauge action, and perform the simulation ...

Hierarchical Twist: Chirality Across Scales in Cellulose Cholesterics

Advanced Optical Materials, Volume 14, Issue 4, 27 January 2026.
Hierarchical left‐ and right‐handed chiral nematic structures are observed in a solvent‐free thermotropic cellulose derivative. Free‐standing films show hierarchical twisted structures whose pitches respond differently to uniaxial strain: left‐handed pitches increase, ones decrease.

Combining the complex Langevin method and the generalized Lefschetz-thimble method

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017
The complex Langevin method and the generalized Lefschetz-thimble method are two closely related approaches to the sign problem, which are both based on complexification of the original dynamical variables. The former can be viewed as a generalization of

Phase diagrams in nonlocal PNJL models constrained by Lattice QCD results

, 2013
Based on lattice QCD-adjusted SU(2) nonlocal Polyakov--Nambu--Jona-Lasinio (PNJL) models, we investigate how the location of the critical endpoint in the QCD phase diagram depends on the strenght of the vector meson coupling, as well as the Polyakov-loop

Quantum GraviElectro Dynamics

Annalen der Physik, Volume 538, Issue 1, January 2026.
The BRST invariant Lagrangian of the gravitationally interacting U(1)$U(1)$ gauge theory, namely the Quantum GraviElectro Dynamics (QGED). The Yan–Mills theory with the Hilbert–Einstein gravitational Lagrangian, namely the Yang–Mills–Utiyama (YMU) theory, is defined and quantised using the standard procedure. The theory is perturbatively renormalisable,

Chiral and Color-superconducting Phase Transitions with Vector Interaction in a Simple Model (Addenda) [PDF]

, 2002
In the preceding paper(Prog.Theor.Phys.108(2002)929 or hep-ph/0207255), we have shown that the critical line of the first order chiral transition of QCD can have two endpoints.
