The Nambu—Jona-Lasinio model of quantum chromodynamics

SP Klevansky - Reviews of Modern Physics, 1992 - APS
Abstract The Nambu—Jona-Lasinio model is reviewed in its flavor SU (2) and SU (3)
versions applied to quarks. The dynamical generation of quark masses is demonstrated as a …

The present review gives a survey of recent developments and applications of the Nambu-
Jona-Lasinio model with Nf= 2 and Nf= 3 quark flavors for the structure of baryons. The …

Quark matter under strong magnetic fields in the Nambu–Jona-Lasinio Model

DP Menezes, MB Pinto, SS Avancini, AP Martinez… - Physical Review C …, 2009 - APS
In the present work we use the large-N c approximation to investigate quark matter
described by the SU (2) Nambu–Jona-Lasinio model subject to a strong magnetic field. The …

The stability of nuclear matter in the Nambu–Jona-Lasinio model

W Bentz, AW Thomas - Nuclear Physics A, 2001 - Elsevier
Using the Nambu–Jona-Lasinio model to describe the nucleon as a quark–diquark state, we
discuss the stability of nuclear matter in a hybrid model for the ground state at finite nucleon …

The Problem of matter stability in the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model

M Buballa - Nuclear Physics A, 1996 - Elsevier
We reinvestigate the conditions for stable matter solutions in the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (NJL)
model. In mean field approximation the NJL model can be regarded as an extension of the …

Warm stellar matter with deconfinement: Application to compact stars

DP Menezes, C Providência - Physical Review C, 2003 - APS
We investigate the properties of mixed stars formed by hadronic and quark matter in β
equilibrium described by appropriate equations of state (EOS) in the framework of relativistic …

Quark stars within relativistic models

DP Menezes, C Providência… - Journal of Physics G …, 2006 - iopscience.iop.org
Lately, it has been suggested that strange (quark) stars can be responsible for glitches and
other observational features of pulsars. Whether quark stars, if they really exist, are bare or …

Nucleons, nuclear matter and quark matter: A unified NJL approach

S Lawley, W Bentz, AW Thomas - Journal of Physics G: Nuclear …, 2006 - iopscience.iop.org
We use an effective quark model to describe both hadronic matter and deconfined quark
matter. By calculating the equations of state and the corresponding neutron star properties …

Explicit chiral symmetry breaking in the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model

C Schüren, ER Arriola, K Goeke - Nuclear Physics A, 1992 - Elsevier
We consider a chirally symmetric bosonization of the SU (2) Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model
within the Pauli-Villars regularization scheme. Special attention is paid to the way in which …
