NGB and their parameters
Gradient expansion: parameters of the NGB’s Masses of the NGB’s The role of the chemical potential for scalar fields: BE condensation Dispersion relations for the gluons
2
Hierarchies of effective lagrangians
Integrating out heavy degrees of freedom we have two scales. The gap D and a cutoff, d above which we integrate out. Therefore: two different effective theories, LHDET and LGolds
3
Gradient expansion: NGB’s parameters
Recall from HDET that in the CFL phase and in the basis
4
Propagator Coupling to the U(1) NGB:
5
Consider now the case of the U(1)B NGB. The invariant Lagrangian is:
At the lowest order in s generates 3-linear and 4-linear couplings
6
Generating functional:
7
At the lowest order:
8
Feynman rules For each fermionic internal line For each vertex a term iLint For each internal momentum not constrained by momentum conservation: Factor 2x(-1) from Fermi statistics and spin. A factor 1/2 from replica trick. A statistical factor when needed.
9
+ Goldstone theorem: Expanding in p/D:
10
CFL
11
For the V NGB same result in CFL, whereas in 2SC
With an analogous calculation:
12
Dispersion relation for the NGB’s
Different way of computing: Current conservation:
13
Masses of the NGB’s QCD mass term:
14
Calculation of the coefficients from QCD
Mass insertion in QCD Effective 4-fermi Contribution to the vacuum energy
15
Consider: Solving for as in HDET like chemical potential
16
Consider fermions at finite density:
as a gauge field A0 Invariant under: Define: Invariance under:
17
The same symmetry should hold at the level of the effective theory for the CFL phase (NGB’s), implying that The generic term in the derivative expansion of the NGB effective lagrangian has the form
18
Compare the two contribution to quark masses:
kinetic term mass insertion Same order of magnitude for since
19
The role of the chemical potential for scalar fields: Bose-Einstein condensation
A conserved current may be coupled to the a gauge field. Chemical potential is coupled to a conserved charge. The chemical potential must enter as the fourth component of a gauge field.
20
Complex scalar field: Mass spectrum: For m < m breaks C
negative mass term Mass spectrum: For m < m
21
At m = m, second order phase transition
At m = m, second order phase transition. Formation of a condensate obtained from: Charge density Ground state = Bose-Einstein condensate
22
Mass spectrum At zero momentum
23
At small momentum
24
Back to CFL. From the structure
First term from “chemical potential” like kinetic term, the second from mass insertions
25
For large values of ms: and the masses of K+ and K0 are pushed down. For the critical value masses vanish
26
For larger values of ms these modes become unstable
For larger values of ms these modes become unstable. Signal of condensation. Look for a kaon condensate of the type: (In the CFL vacuum, S = 1) and substitute inside the effective lagrangian positive contribution from mass insertion negative contribution from the “chemical potential”
27
Defining with solution and hypercharge density
28
breaking through the doublet as in the SM
Mass terms break original SU(3)c+L+R to SU(2)IxU(1)Y. Kaon condensation breaks this to U(1) breaking through the doublet as in the SM Only 2 NGB’s from K0, K+ instead of expected 3 (see Chada & Nielsen 1976)
29
Chada and Nielsen theorem: The number of NGB’s depends on their dispersion relation
If E is linear in k, one NGB for any broken symmetry If E is quadratic in k, one NGB for any two broken generators In relativistic case always of type I, in the non-relativistic case both possibilities arise, for instance in the ferromagnet there is one NGB of type II, whereas for the antiferromagnet there are two NGB’s of type I
30
Dispersion relations for the gluons
The bare Meissner mass The heavy field contribution comes from the term
31
Notice that the first quantized hamiltonian is:
Since the zero momentum propagator is the density one gets spin
32
Gluons self-energy Vertices from Consider first 2SC for the unbroken gluons:
33
Bare Meissner mass cancels out the constant contribution from the s.e.
All the components of the vacuum polarization have the same wave function renormalization Dielectric constant e = k+1, and magnetic permeability l =1
34
Broken gluons a P00(0) - Pij(0) 1-3 4-7 3mg2/2 mg2/2 8 3mg2 mg2/3
35
But physical masses depend on the wave function renormalization
Rest mass defined as the energy at zero momentum: The expansion in p/D cannot be trusted, but numerically
36
In the CFL case one finds:
from bare Meissner mass Recall that from the effective lagrangian we got: implying and fixing all the parameters.
37
We find: Numerically
38
Different quark masses
We have seen that for one massless flavors and a massive one (ms), the condensate may be disrupted for The radii of the Fermi spheres are: As if the two quarks had different chemical potential (ms2/2m)
39
Simulate the problem with two massless quarks with different chemical potentials:
Can be described by an interaction hamiltonian Lot of attention in normal SC.
40
HI changes the inverse propagator
and the gap equation (for spin up and down fermions): This has two solutions:
41
Grand potential: Also: Favored solution
42
Also: First order transition to the normal state at For constant D, Ginzburg-Landau expanding up to D6
