A study of diquark and meson condensation in the Nambu–Jona-Lasinio model and Fermi momentum

详细

Using a three- and four-dimensional Pauli–Villars regularization scheme, we investigate quark–antiquark and diquark condensation in the framework of the Nambu–Jona-Lasinio model. Using the particle Fermi momentum as a cutoff parameter, we study the energy gap width and coherence length for the meson condensate 〈\(q\bar q\)〉. We also study the energy gap width and critical coherence length (the distance over which there would be no diquark condensation) for the diquark 〈qq〉 and the dependence on the Fermi momentum. We obtain an estimate of the Fermi momentum value for meson and diquark condensates with an energy gap width of the order of 100 MeV.
