Matter at high density and low temperature is expected to be a color superconductor, which
is a degenerate Fermi gas of quarks with a condensate of Cooper pairs near the Fermi …

Investigations of deconfined quark matter within NJL-type models are reviewed, focusing on
the regime of low temperatures and “moderate” densities, which is not accessible by …

Inhomogeneous superconductors and inhomogeneous superfluids appear in a variety of
contexts including quark matter at extreme densities, fermionic systems of cold atoms, type-II …

The simplest pattern of color superconductivity involves BCS pairing between up and down
quarks. We argue that this2SC'phase will not arise within a compact star. A macroscopic …

We investigate the consequences of enforcing local color neutrality on the color
superconducting phases of quark matter by utilizing the Nambu–Jona-Lasinio model …

Forty years ago Witten suggested that dark matter could be composed of macroscopic
clusters of strange quark matter. This idea was very popular for several years, but it dropped …

In neutral cold quark matter that is sufficiently dense that the strange quark mass M s is
unimportant, all nine quarks (three colors; three flavors) pair in a color-flavor locked (CFL) …

We study the transition from hadronic matter to a mixed phase of quarks and hadrons at high
baryon and isospin densities reached in heavy ion collisions. We focus our attention on the …

A bstract We demonstrate that the complex Langevin method (CLM) enables calculations in
QCD at finite density in a parameter regime in which conventional methods, such as the …

We examine electrically and color neutral quark matter in β-equilibrium focusing on the
possibility of mixed phases between different color superconducting phases. To that end we …
