Kaon condensation at finite temperature
Abstract
A new formulation is presented to treat thermal fluctuations around the kaon condensate, based on chiral symmetry. Separating the zero mode from the beginning we perform the imaginary-time path integral to the one loop to get the thermodynamic potential at finite temperature. The role of the Goldstone mode in the kaon condensed phase is elucidated in relation to the equation of state.
