Quark Quasi-particles in the Deconfined Phase
Is There Quark Quasi-Particles in QGP? Yes, at asymptotically high T. Quark quasi-particles: normal • 2 collective excitations • having a “thermal mass” • mT~ gT w / mT “plasmino” • width G~g2T p / mT The decay width grows as T is lowered. NOT clear, near Tc.
Lattice QCD Simulation for Quarks Karsch,MK, 2007 Imaginary-time quark correlator in Landau gauge in quenched approx., 643x16 T = 3Tc 2-pole ansatz for quark spectral function: :normal :plasmino projection by tT • Lattice result is well reproduced by 2-pole ansatz (c2/dof~1). Quark excitations would have small decay rate even near Tc. See also the analysis in SD eq., Harada, Nemoto, 2007
Quark Dispersion Karsch, MK, to appear soon. in quenched approx., 643x16 HTL(1-loop) (plasmino) p/T • Lattice results behave reasonably as functions of p. • Quarks have a thermal mass mT ~ 0.8T. (1.25<T/Tc<3) Notice: Further studies on spatial volume and discretization effects are needed for the definite conclusion about G.

Stability of Diquarks above Tc Nozieres, Schmitt-Rink, 1985 Nishida, Abuki, 2007 (1) The pole is at w =0 at T=Tc (Thouless criterion). (2) Threshold energy of diquarks are m1-m1 m2-m2 m > m No stable diquarks above Tc w 0 m < m Stable diquarks exist above Tc until Tdiss w 0 • m<m is the criterion for BEC. Nozieres, Schmitt-Rink ’85 • Dynamically generated quark masses determine the stability. Note: Thermal mass is not responsible for the stability. Hidaka, MK, 2007

Summary • The quenched lattice simulation indicates the existence of the quark quasi-particles even near Tc, having a thermal mass mT~0.8T. • The quark matter under neutrality conditions has an extremely rich phase structure owing to the mismatches of Fermi surfaces. • The formation of superconductivity in the polarized gas is a hot topics in the condensed matter physics, and the QM community will have a lot to learn from them. • If the diquark coupling is strong enough, the quarks form stable diquarks in the QGP phase at lower m. • Even if the diquark coupling is not sufficiently strong, • the fluctuations affect various observables near but well above Tc.
