Generalized Pions in Dense QCD
Mannque Rho, Andreas Wirzba, Ismail Zahed
Abstract
QCD superconductors in the color-flavor-locked (CFL) phase sustain light Goldstone modes (that will be referred to as generalized pions) that can be described as pairs of particle and/or hole excitations around a gapped Fermi surface. In weak coupling and to leading logarithm accuracy, their form factor, mass and decay constant can be evaluated exactly. These modes are found to satisfy an axial-Ward-identity, constraining the mass of the Goldstone modes in the CFL phase.
