The Fate of Hadron Masses in Dense Matter: Hidden Local Symmetry and Color Flavor Locking
G. E. Brown, Mannque Rho
Abstract
The notion that hadron masses scale according to the scaling of the quark condensate in hadronic matter, partly supported by a number of observations in finite nuclei, can be interpreted in terms of Harada-Yamawaki's ``vector manifestation" (VM) of chiral symmetry. In this scenario, near chiral restoration, the vector meson masses drop to zero in the chiral limit with vanishing widths. This scenario appears to differ from the standard linear sigma model scenario. We exploit a link between the VM and color-flavor locking inferred by us from lattice data on quark number susceptibility (QNS) measured as a function of temperature to suggest that local flavor symmetry gets mapped to color gauge symmetry at the chiral phase transition.
