Fermions and gauge vector mesons at finite temperature and density. III. The ground-state energy of a relativistic quark gas
Abstract
We calculate the ground-state energy of a quark gas up to and including effecs of fourth order in the quark-gluon coupling. Renormalization-group techniques are used to rewrite the results of the fourth-order calculation in terms of a chemical-potential-dependent coupling. The chemical-potential-dependent coupling approaches zero at high densities. We argue that at hadronic matter densities a phase transition between quark matter and hadronic matter occurs. We show the existence of this phase transition for a three-color, one-flavor quark gas. We find a close correspondence between the results of quantum chromodynamics at large coupling with no bag constant and quantum chromodynamics at small coupling with a bag constant.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
