Squeezed Quantum State of Disoriented Chiral Condensate

Abstract

We consider the quantum state describing the Disoriented Chiral Condensate (DCC) which may be produced in high energy collisions. Using the approach suggested by Rajagopal and Wilczek to describe the amplification of the long wavelength classical pion modes, we consider the quantum-mechanical evolution of the initial vacuum state into the final squeezed state describing the DCC. The obtained wave function has some interesting properties which are discussed.
